451 REASONS to watch Fahrenheit 451 (1966) instead of reading the book by Ray Bradbury.
For example:
1. Somehow WATCHING the movie seems more appropriate for the subject matter than READING the book.
2. Flat Screen TVs
3. Mid-Century Modern homes furnished with Colonial style furniture.
4. Firemen who make fires VS Firefighters who put out fires.
5. Nazi style uniforms, similar "salute", German accent
6. Julie Christie. GORGEOUS as usual!
7. No computers
8. No cell phones
9. Reading the dictionary.
10. Salvidore Dale,Othella, Vanity Fair, Madame Bovary, The World Rating (who reads French anyway) Alice in Wonderland, etc.
11. To figure out what is the animal on their insignia.
12. Most profound speech during "The Attic Scene"
