Already off of CNN’s homepage? It was there at three in the morning, when I was up….and shouldn’t have been.
Truth be told, it’s been some time since I’ve cracked a Vonnegut book. I still own some, so that means something.
Boy, Hollywood could destroy a Vonnegut book. Easily a 100% shit rate. Chime in. Any of you get hoodwinked into renting Breakfast of Champions? On paper, Slaughterhouse Five looks ok (meaning, it was made in the 70’s, and I’ll watch anything from the 70’s), but of course, another misstep.

The movie version of Slaughterhouse-Five is great. I think Vonnegut is even on record as saying it’s the rare instance where the movie was better than the book (and it was a pretty damn good book). Check it out.

Mother Night was a pretty good adaptation.
We miss The Party Doctor over at TBSOWFMU.
