Enjoy.  Of course, we don't really look like Michael Beck and Deborah Van Valkenburgh did in 1979, but neither do they anymore. Hell, it's been forty years. The characters they played were thrown together by circumstance, not unlike Maya and me. Don't adjust your hair, Maya. We don't have to pretty ourselves up for these rich puke prom kids.  |

If I recall correctly, the main character in the book was black, but in the movie he was changed to a Germanic white. If I were making the movie I would have taken a chance and made Cochise the leader, and Swan would have been the 2nd-in-command. Try and squeeze racism out of that, Cinemachinery.  |

I think they were all black in the book. Mercy got gangraped by them at one point. The film has them multiracial whilst wearing Indiah-style coats |

Not for the gangrape part, but to see how it compares with the film. The last time this came up someone said it was based on a true story, Anabasis, and the Ten Thousand Greek mercenaries who had to fight/negotiate their way home after Cyrus was killed. It's a classic story. |
