The book and the movie are evidently quite different; in the book, the protagonist Dryden is English; in the movie, he is portrayed by the All-American actor James Coburn. In the book, the psychiatrist Sammy Lee is a Chinese-American man; in the movie, it is a French woman, Leslie Caron.
The article characterizes the movie and the book as science-fiction; it seems rather mere fiction because the science, if not accurate at its 1978 writing, is correct in tenor if not in its particulars, particularly with respect to the use of Human Growth Hormone, which has now been outlawed due to its deleterious effects. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.123.168.22 (talk) 20:16, 25 March 2010 (UTC)Reply
