I just re-watched this on Holy Saturday with my kids who saw it for the first time (and after my eldest read the book with me). A friend of mine had recommended drawing parallels to the resurrection of Jesus. Then I saw the Harrowing of Hell in freeing the statues. So good!

Turkish delight is definitely way more amazing in the book and the movie, and I also felt betrayed when I first tasted it. 😅
Its a shame the sequels never matched this film in terms of quality.
