2081, 2009, USA   DIRECTED BY CHANDLER TUTTLE
A handsome 25-minute adaptation of Kurt Vonnegut's satirical 'Harrison Bergeron', in which no one is better and everyone is worse, by law. Far more concise than the over-long and dumbed-down 1995 film, and the producers were clearly shooting in mind of the values Vonnegut was advocating. It's dark and gloomy and you have to be in the mood, but I'd call this a rather striking success.

Tuttle. Interesting choice of name.

(Movie bookmarked for later. I'll take a look when I have a quite half an hour, I loved the original short story.)
