Do yourself a favor... read the book, instead of watching the movie.Ah, a kindred spirit.![]()
Perhaps motivated by own faulty memory, and a conviction that a widely-praised film must be enjoyable on some level, I tried re-watching 2001 last week. I turned it off about the time Poole and company were flying out to TMA-1.
The book is far better, IMHO. And you can enjoy it while entirely sober, too!
