	USATODAY.com - Scandals lead execs to 'Atlas Shrugged' (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
		A movie deal may be down the road, which would return it to its best-seller days of the 1950s and early 1960s, when it was popular on college campuses.
		Atlas Shrugged reads like a mystery that takes readers from a steel mill to high society and includes a strong female character in Dagny Taggart, a top executive ahead of her time.
		But Atlas Shrugged is more point-blank with Rand's philosophy, and it's the second-most-influential book of all time, a distant second to the Bible, according to a survey of 5,000 Book-of-the-Month Club members taken a decade ago for the Library of Congress.

		Past attempts to make Atlas Shrugged into a movie have failed, though Crusader president and CEO Howard Baldwin is arguably better prepared than his predecessors.
		As a movie, its potential to move audiences is profound.
		Today's times seem taken straight from the pages of Atlas Shrugged: New York City at the core of a disastrous climax, businessmen under government persecution, chronic train wrecks and the slow, grinding halt of society's basic functions.

		But reading some interviews, he seems to really love the story of Atlas Shrugged, reading the book a great deal, having gone through some kind of transformation at some stage in his life that changed his outlook.
		I think he is setting it in the future not because of the technology, the book itself is timeless, but so as to give people reason to believe the world will goto hell in the next 15 years because of the logical outcome of the philosophy that is often said today.
		I was disappointed in the movie because it implies that religion and science are equally valid.

		I finished reading Atlas Shrugged today, and I must confess that, as highly as I esteem Madam Rand, and as much as I agree with her philosophy of Objectivism, she simply is not what I would consider a great writer.
		Atlas Shrugged made a huge impact on me when I read it at fifteen, and I read it two more times, along with the rest of Ayn Rand's main fiction and non-fiction works, before my tenth-grade school year was finished!
		Atlas Shrugged is an essential book to read if you want to understand the political situation in the modern world and also the nature of human beings.

		Doing some poking around, reading up on Ayn Rand's Atlas Shrugged today and see that the movie rights have been bought and some casting prospects have been made.
		Even with that said, I can't believe a 21st century movie will be able to do justice to the work, and James V. Hart as the screenplay writer doesn't give me much to be hopeful for.
		The Fountainhead (article neutrality under dispute) was made into a movie back in 1949 when Ayn was still alive.

		While hope springs eternal, I wager the movie will be a disaster on the terms that are most important to us, and that it will likely be attacked in the press as a vanity project for a bunch of egotistical Hollywood types.
		The movie companies themselves might see the whole contest as "unfair competition" in the sense that their contracts probably guarantee them the exclusive right to make a movie based on Atlas Shrugged, or any part of Atlas Shrugged.
		As the movie progresses, and as each scene unfolds, the part of Galt's speech (or some edited version therefrom)that was philosophically appropriate to the scene could be voiced-over.

		The reason for the verbage is because this was a presentation of said philosophy as much as it was a novel/story.
