Are Movie-Makers Up to the Challenge?



July 24, 2018


Dear Movie-Makers:

I saw a trailer for another version of the How the Grinch Stole Christmas, and I sincerely hope that Dr. Seuss would be appalled. I certainly was.

I don’t see any need to turn books like Stuart Little, Paddington, or The Grinch into PG-rated movies. Not even to make them interesting for adult audiences.


They’re G-rated books. I know you can stretch yourselves, use your creativity, and make enjoyable G-rated movies out of them.


Consider it an intellectual exercise.
