I was wondering if anyone has ever seen the film that was
made after "Uncle Wiggly", called "My Foolish Heart"...

I looked at my huge local video store for it (I've forsworn
Blockbuster after consecutively renting three damaged tapes
from them), but they didn't have it, and their huge phone 
book of All The Movies Ever Made (or something like that) 
didn't even mention it...

If anyone has ever seen it, how was it?  I have this nagging
fear of irony, after Holden's excessive damnation of Hollywood,
that the only Salinger film ever made (although I think I 
recall one being made in Eastern Europe or something) is 
a huge disgusting mess.  I'm curious, though, since the script
was written by the writers of "Casablanca"--although I expect
"Casablanca" was the exact sort of film the Holden abhorred.

Of course I still want to see it--with a sort of morbid 
curiosity--since I think "Uncle Wiggly" is one of Salinger's
best.  If anyone has got anything to say about it, please 
share.  I'd greatly appreciate it.

Brendan
