Sheeeeesh! You squirm like a hemerhoid sufferer on a rubber donut! Books and movies are completely different rights issues. It's not uncommon for films to employ variations on the titles of well known books without any connection to the original work. If there are obvious CONTENT similarities, then right's issues MAY come into play, but even then it's notoriously difficult to prove theft of property in court without demonstrating that the screenplay's author(s) had both opportunity and intent. We DO know the field; you obviously don't!Ray Bradbury's outrage over Michael Moore's tongue 'n cheek play on his novel's title would be laughable were it not so sad.
