BDPetersen Posted December 1, 2023 Report Posted December 1, 2023 Every holiday season I make it a point to treating myself to a rebroadcast of The Shepherd by Fredrick Forstyhe as read on CBC. (I won’t try to find a link. There are several out there.) It a telling of an RAF pilot’s eventful Christmas Eve flight across the North Sea in 1957. Today I noticed that it has been made into a short (39min) film showing on Disney+ so I couldn’t wait to have a look. I can report that it isn’t too bad. The radio version makes a more compelling story and probably needs to be heard before watching, but I was pleased. See what you think. 1 1 Quote
Fritz1 Posted December 2, 2023 Report Posted December 2, 2023 Read this as a teenager and there were times over the years when I felt like I had a Shepherd Quote
dkkim73 Posted December 2, 2023 Report Posted December 2, 2023 Thank you! That was a fine listen. I'd never heard it before. Had some other thoughts but not going to spoil it for anyone who hasn't listened! Quote
blaine beaven Posted December 2, 2023 Report Posted December 2, 2023 This is a favorite for me this time of year as well. I will check out the Disney+ offering too. Thanks! Quote
