conspiracy thoery new movie with mel gibson and julia roberts prominently features catcher in the rye without mentioning Salinger or discussing content in fact other than the title the only comment about it is a mention of Holdens name the main character of compelled to buy numerous copies as a result of brainwashing it is used as a way to track the subject ie subject buys copy at barnes and noble when book is scanned by cashier computers register the buy and government agency knows location of subject it is also mentioned at one point that lee harvey oswald and john hinkley jr had copies of catcher and there were pics of john lennon on main characters wall but that maybe too much of a strech then again maybe not anyway catcher turns out to be a major plot device in a decidedly noncerebral movie it also botherd me i have numerous copies of catcher also.
