Any Bradbury updates for my class?
Each semester I teach a science fiction/fantasy course in my high school and use the M.C. In my introduction to the book, I always include some biographical material on Ray Bradbury. Is there anything new to add from the general biographical material out there (which I have)? Any new movies in the works? etc. Any little "tidbits" is appreciated.

There's a new short film of "The Small Assassin" coming up. The feature-length production of Fahrenheit 451 is still supposedly on the cards. A new book called Match To Flame, examining the origins of Fahrenheit 451, is on its way this year.

Recently there was the publication of Farewell Summer, the sequel to the novel Dandelion Wine. And there is currently on release an audio CD dramatisation of Ray's play Dandelion Wine.

Search for any of these on the board, and you should find several posts about each one.

I hope this helps. My website is usually a good place to look for news (although I've been too busy to update it of late).

...and, of course, "The Bradbury Chronicles", the biography by Sam Weller...

Thanks for the info. (I do have "The Bradbury Chronicles" -- very interesting reading!)
