Did anyone ever read his “Fifth Column?” (I think that’s what it was called). I thought that one was pretty cool and ripe for a movie.

"Sixth Column". There isn't the slightest chance that novel will ever be adapted into film. Far too politically incorrect by today's standards.

The only Heinlein novel less likely to be adapted is "Farnham's Freehold". That one would make the Left's heads explode.

Hey, that is my favorite and blueprint for my Fundamentally Change Policy... yet I wouldn't waste time and help sending Hugh, Barbara and their brats back in time.

That was it. I knew it had been awhile since I read it.

Yeah, with Chi-coms as villains, there’s no way it will ever be made into a film.
