My main objection to it (and I must admit I watched it years ago) was that if I hadnt read the book first I wouldnt have had the remotest idea what was going on.
See, I had no problem understanding what was going on. I just learned later, after reading the book, that it wasn't the same thing as was happening in the book.
The most merciful thing in the world, I think, is the inability of the human mind to correlate all its contents. ... The piecing together of dissociated knowledge will open up such terrifying vistas of reality, and of our frightful position therein, that we shall either go mad from the revelation or flee from the light into the peace and safety of a new dark age.
