Oh wow! I must've read that 20 years ago and I knew within seconds which story it was. That's all kinds of awesome.

Oh, I had totally forgotten about that story, and it is an amazing one. Looks like the movie will be pretty loyal to it too, which is neat. I want to see it.

I remember reading it... it made me terribly depressed, honestly.

It's an amazing short story, and I liked the trailer.

I haven't watched the trailer, but I have a guess as to which story it is.

I thought there was a movie based on it already, thanks Lisa for the link. This is a must read story.

But an hour really would be too long. It would involve far too much stretching and filling in for my taste.

Looks like it could be hard to watch. I must track down the story.

Since it's only a short film, how are we going to see it?

Elsewhere on the site one can request email updates on screenings in one's own area.

Hmm. You're in the L.A. area, right? Maybe the local clump could have an outing . . .
