Review of Fahrenheit 451 (1966) by Grant S — 23 Jun 2012
Good, but not great. I haven't read the book but central plot is great. The anti-censorship, pro-freedom-of-expression, anti-fascism, message is a powerful one. However, the story is told in mostly dull and listless fashion. Quite boring to start off with and takes a while to get going. Even once it becomes interesting, it still isn't enthralling.
Performances are so-so. Julie Christie is good but the remaining cast are average, at best.
Best to read the book, I think.
