I thought Glory Road was the name of a pretty good novel by Robert Heinlein.

Would have made a pretty good movie, too. Sex, nudity, violence AND a neat SF/Fantasy plot. Have to be at least an "R" rating.
And I bet it would go over great!

I read it recently and it doesn't hold up well. The last quarter or so is a huge letdown.

I always thought "The Moon is a Harsh Mistress" would make a great movie. (my favorite Heinlein book,which is obvious from my screen name) but, I have, as yet, not seen a good adaptation of one of his books on film.

And THAT novel should be made into a movie.

(Then again, Heinlein's Starship Troopers was a good book, but made into a silly, over-played teenaged comic book of a movie condemning the military Heinlein honored with every quasi/crazy Nazi trick in the Hollywooder's handbook.)
