They're making a film based on Brave New World, due out in 2011, it should be better than the lame tv movies they attempted already. It can be seen as a Utopia, although personally it disturbs me and I think Huxley wrote it with that in mind. The people are given drugs by the government, to have a monogamous relationship is considered obscene and people are expected to have many sexual partners. Hmm, almost sounds like todays society, almost.

In Switzerland they had brotherly love - they had 500 years of democracy and peace, and what did that produce? The cuckoo clock."
