I really lke the style of Fahrenheit 451. I guess it marks my affection for an older mode of storytelling.

It's good but not on the top of my list. My problem with it, I guess, is that I read the book, which is superior, before not after.

Hah.

If you don't keep a book and a film separate, as in "two presentations on similar themes" then you're unlikely to enjoy any film where the book is decent. There's just a lot more narrative room in a normal book vs. a normal film.
