Or by Dennis Dugan and will be reinvented as a slapstick comedy starring Ashton Kutcher, Tara Reid and Rob Schneider in a fat suit.
Even if it's made into a movie I mostly won't bother to see it. I remember seeing a documentary (I forget the name, it's not "Chapter 27") it detailed what Chapman did before he shot John Lennon. I have nothing against J.D. Salinger, however I refuse to read Catcher In The Rye, because it's tied into the story of John Lennon's death for me, there no seperating the two for me, the mere name of the book reminds me of John Lennon.
