Have Spacesuit....Will Travel

One of my favourite juvenile Sci Fi stories by my favourite author, Robert A. Heinlein is being turned into a movie!!

Star Trek writer Harry Kloor wrote the screen play so hopefully it will keep close to the original story line. Because it really is a great story.
It's due to be released next year.
Though they'd better get a move on, they haven't even started filming yet.

I'll look forward to the movie!

I wish they would also turn "Stranger in a strange land" into a screen play, it would be my all time favourite.

I'm pretty sure Bowie bought the rights to Stranger back in the 70's. He would have made a brilliant Valentine Michael Smith. Especially after his performance in The Man Who Fell to Earth.

It's one Heinlein book that disappeared from my collection........just happened to one of my favourites. I've just finished reading Time Enough For Love for the umpteenth time.
