The movie is a neater, more streamlined version of the book. Made
total sense to me, ie there were no loose ends or cryptic signifiers
that left me scratching my head. Seriously don't get the reviewers who
said 'not getting it is the point!'
Then again, all of this kind of makes it *less* Pynchonian, but still
kinda more enjoyable than the book itself imho.
