Book description
The republication of Harlan Ellison's Movie, the full-length feature
film he created when a producer at 20th Century-Fox said to him,
"If we gave you the money, and no interference, what sort of movie
would you write?" Well, that producer is no longer at 20th, he left
the whole entire venue of moviemaking after Harlan Ellison's Movie was
seen by the Suits at the studio. There's no use even trying to describe
what the film is about, except to confirm the long-standing rumor that
it contaims a scene in which a 70-foot-tall boll weevil chews and
swallows an entire farmhouse and silo on-camera. (It's Scene 33C.)
Harlan Ellison is a multiple Hugo and Nebula Award winning writer and
editor. He wrote the script for the hugely popular Star Trek episode,
The City on the Edge of Forever, the Nebula Award-winning novella, A Boy
and his Dog, and many acclaimed stories including 'Shatterday' and 'I
Have No Mouth and I Must Scream'. His groundbreaking anthology Dangerous
Visions was instrumental in defining the New Wave movement. Harlan
Ellison lives in Los Angeles.
