Unfilmable novels

I've pictured the open credits for COL49 for years now.
Black & white; a macro close-up of a muted posthorn, 
the money credits above for executive producer, etc. . . .
as the camera slowly pulls back we see the muted 
posthorn emblem is on some sort of black metal screen.
As the camera pulls back further we see it's a decoration
on a vintage 9 transistor pocket radio from 1964 
(probably a "Viscount") and a hand appears, clicking on 
the radio. We seet the title and the rest of the credits 
above the radio as it plays "Have you Seen Her Face?" 
by the Byrds right up to:

"Run, Run---Don't Look Back,
Can't hide from that look in her eye" 

and then a hard cut to the dead green eye of a vintage
console black & white T.V. and the actress playing Oed 
(off camera) saying the word "God".
