'Either Or' and 'We The Living'
Posted by overmanwarrior 13 years, 5 months ago to Culture
I am curious about Duncan Scott, who in 1986 was responsible for creating a new, re-edited version of the 1942 Italian film adaptation of 'We the Living' with English subtitles, who joined the production team this time around. I am about to finish reading We The Living, and I understand he has a 1986 adaption of that book, and I must see it. 'We The Living' has stunned me. I didn't expect to like it, but I do, very much! I was waiting to read it to get into an Ayn Rand mood close to the release of this film. I like the title 'Either Or', as it was indicated in the book, and I am fascinated to see what Scott brought to the table in increased value. Because 'We The Living' is a story EVERY, and I mean EVERY school child should have to read to call themselves Americans. This is just one small example of how this new Atlas film is bringing the message of Rand to millions of new readers, and not just Atlas Shrugged. But the whole body of work that has much to contribute to society in a fresh look at old ideas that should have already been accepted as mainstream.
