    Umm....this is poll based on which writer most personifies Perl and you are criticizing it based on having seen a movie. Have I missed something?

      Back in those days most movies were based on a written story, unlike today's movies which seem to be mostly based on what the marketroids and CGI artists think would look good on the big screen :-/

        Methinx you've forgotten another source of todays' films : all too frequently, they are intolerably poor (with a few exceptions) remakes of classic films.

        A user level that continues to overstate my experience :-))

    Douglas Adams did have a hand in the movie before he died, but its not a patch on either the books or the radio series.
