Film vs Book
[edit]The book and the movie are evidently quite different; in the book, the protagonist Dryden is English; in the movie, he is portrayed by the All-American actor James Coburn. In the book, the psychiatrist Sammy Lee is a Chinese-American man; in the movie, it is a French woman, Leslie Caron.
The article characterizes the movie and the book as science-fiction; it seems rather mere fiction because the science, if not accurate at its 1978 writing, is correct in tenor if not in its particulars, particularly with respect to the use of Human Growth Hormone, which has now been outlawed due to its deleterious effects. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.123.168.22 (talk) 20:16, 25 March 2010 (UTC)
Variety review
[edit]The Variety review is dated June 20, 1970, which would be strange for a 1979 film. What's the correct date? YMS (talk) 21:45, 1 January 2025 (UTC)
- I did not find this exact article anywhere, but given that the film release date was June 15, 1979, and the AFI Catalog lists a Variety, 20 Jun 1979, p. 18 article as one source about the movie, it is somewhat safe to assume that the actual date for this "Variety. June 20, 1970. 18." reference is 20 Jun 1979 instead of 1970. I will change it accordingly. YMS (talk) 23:02, 14 September 2026 (UTC)
