Re: Lathe of heaven.  There was the question "did they actually
manage to turn that mess into a good movie?"

I didn't read the book.  I saw the movie, though.  Twice.  I had
to see it a second time because the first time I saw it, my brother
brought over a sausage pizza and we saw it together; I couldn't
decide if it was the pizza or the movie that made me sick.  It
turned out to be the movie.  It was one of those pretentious, 
"I think I'll be confusing so they'll think I'm intelligent"
stories.  The only thing I liked about it was the name of the
main character, George Orr, pronounced "Jor Jor".
