Guest guest Posted February 1, 2007 Report Share Posted February 1, 2007 I saw the title Turkish Delight and thought of the Narnia book, The Lion, The Witch and the Wardrobe. This doesn't sound like what they were talking about in the movie though. LOL There must be more than one kind of Turkish Delight.
