So, I recently finished reading Catlow, the Lost Treasures edition. Funny thing is I could have sworn I'd read it before, but none of it was familiar to me at all until they got the gold. Then I remembered it a little. Strange things that our memories will do. Clearly I haven't read it in a long time.
In the LT section at the back Beau mentioned that there had been a movie made of it, so I watched that tonight. It wasn't too bad, though obviously not as good as the book. I'm not sure it did that good of a job of explaining what was going on some of the time. Also, as an avid listener of old time radio I think of Richard Crenna as the guy playing annoying teen boys with a nasally voice. LOL But I know he was also in Rambo. Anyway, it's definitely not a cinematic masterpiece, but I suppose you could find worse movies to watch.
