There *WAS* the short story "I Since the Body Electric," by Heinlein (Niven? Bradbury?) that was made into a "Twilight Zone" episode and recently appeared on NBC as a TV movie. /* ---------- */ "I Sing the Body Electric" was by Bradbury, and it (as well as a number of other Bradbury stories) has been adapted to television several times. But as far as I know, Bradbury was not directly involved in these adaptations. The question was about movies which were made with the direct participation of an SF author. If we start talking about movies and TV shows that were adapted from real SF writers' work, there are hundreds of such. Scott McEwan uiucdcs!mcewan
