Take a DQ 2-3, I haven’t seen those movies since I was about 12. (Yes, I even used my chores money to see the sequel with Bette Davis and Christopher Lee in a theatre first run). The girl was named Tia. The boy… I want to say Tony? Take a DQ if that’s not it. Never read the book - our library didn’t have it, although they did have _The Forgotten Door_ by the same author. When I saw Christopher Lee in that movie, my reaction was “hey, it’s Dracula!” Last year when my son and I watched _The Hobbit_ movies, when Saruman first appeared, my son’s reaction was “hey, it’s Count Dooku!” ---
