A Scanner Darkly


Philip K. Dick is one of my favourite authors, so I was pleased to see that another of his books is being turned into a film. From watching the trailer they seem to have stuck closely to the original too. There are some big names involved (Keanu, Harrelson and Wiona Ryder!) and it seems to be produced entirely in a comic strip style of animation. Interesting. I read the book last year, it's funny, depressing and crazy. All the character are paranoid drug (substance D) abusers, the lead character ends up spying on himself. Can't wait to see it!
