mad4tunes Wrote:Robert A. Heinlein has not been well served by the movie industry. That's why I get worried when I hear a studio is talking about doing "Stranger In a Strange Land" or "The Moon Is a Harsh Mistress".I gather that Tim Minear was attempting to write the screen play for "Moon."
"Moon" could make a GREAT movie, though.
Quote:Sadly, I don't think "Stranger" could...there's too much THINKING required, and I have little hope that the general American public CAN think when it comes to movies.It's more a case of too much of what happens in the story, happening inside people's minds. That's nearly impossible to translate to the screen.
