Well, Josh, do a quick trip to the Internet Movie bases or Hamilton's In
search of J.D. Salinger to find out more about My Foolish Heart, an
authorised "prostituting" to Hollywood movie based on Uncle Wiggily...There
was an old thread on this around a year back, and though I haven't seen the
movie myself, apparently JDS was quite pissed off at the way it shaped out
and Hamilton has suggested that all of Holden's snidey bits about D.B.
prostituting himself et al are a peeved JDS' jibes...

Suddenly feeling even more guilty about the incomplete FAQ,
