A Scanner, Darkly

Sunday is movie night. This week's selection, A Scanner, Darkly.


It's based on a novel by Philip K. Dick about his own experiences with drug and amphetamine abuse. The movie utilizes a computerized animation technique that transforms live-action video images into an enhanced reality.

Dick's other Hollywood-ized works include, Blade Runner, Minority Report, Total Recall, and Paycheck.

Ursula K. Le Guin, another noted writer, called Dick, "our own home-grown Borges."
