Fair book/website on understanding Luther

[Spotty]

Hey guys,

I'll be watching the movie Luther with my roomates soon (all Protestant) and just would like to reference for them a decent website or book which despells the common myths of the Reformation. They may not want to look at it, but to have it there for them as an opposing view point is important. I feel I can hold me own with regards to explaining what is happening and what is fabricated in the film, but would appreciate the extra assistance. Thanks!

Well in terms of books, I don't know. But if a review of the movie will help, a former co-worker of mine wrote this article:

(PS. Steve Greydanus is a convert to Catholicism, but I don't remember what he was previously)

I think he said he was Dutch Reformed, but don't quote me.
