Last week Scott Turow the author of "Presumed innocent" was on a BBC Radio show called The world book club. The people who missed it can listen to it by following the link. He explains more on the background, the story and characters of his book made of course famous by the movie starring Harrison. :09:

Also, if you're an avid reader check out the other writers. I'm sure you would enjoy them too.:smirk:

In fact Sunny Flower, i heard the original interview on the BBC World Servicd's programme, "The Ticket". No mention was actually made of Harrison, because he was the subject of a fiendishly difficult competition question;
"Who played the part of Rusty Savage in the film version of Presumed Innocent?"
Mmmm, scratching my head over that one! He also mentioned in the interview that he was revisiting the situation of Presumed Innocent, in a sequal. Now wouldn't that be worth a second film from Harrison? and how about narrating the book please Harry? Thanks for posting Sunny Flower. "The Ticket" may also be found by visiting the BBC and scrolling down to radio, then World Service. Jane.

Well Jane.e, i usually do listen to "The Ticket" but i might have missed that because i didn't hear it until it was on a programme called "The world book club" last Monday also on World service. And there was no competition included or else i would have participated. It would be nice to see a sequal to Presumed Innocent but i guess Harrison might be a little tied up with other projects like "Indiana Jones".:smirk:

I just finished watching it a few minutes ago. It is such a well written film, lots of twists (e.g. everyone was doing Palamus, tubes tied). I love toward the end when he is repairing the fence and realizes who the real killer is.
