Thanks to: Mary Alice for the first batch of Derek-de-Lint-as-Abelard pics she gave to me in early 1997 when I first designed these graphics to go on her website but we never completed the thought; to Infinitefish for the square seamless background tile that was the inspiration for the much larger background border image; to the most perfect actor for the part, Derek de Lint, for playing the role of Abelard in this movie; to Marion Meade for writing a novel based on the real life story of Abelard and Heloise; and to all those involved in the making of this film.
