A fine, thickly textured article about Rand and her books.

...they’d have recognized another often-missed point in ‘Atlas.’ Rand's central character Dagny was willing to risk her life for the man she loved. I’d say that is not indicative of a “selfish” act.

You'd say wrong, and the point was never "often-missed." Rand answered questions on this point repeatedly.

I saw it this afternoon and really enjoyed it. The best character in the movie is Ellis Wyatt. His exit and quote at the end of the movie were great.

Given the length and density of the novel—as well as the limited budget and tight production schedule—I thought Part 1 a remarkable and entertaining movie.

I have nits I could pick about it, but that would be pointless. The heart and ideas of the novel made it into the movie. That’s what really matters about it.

I hope that we see Parts 2 and 3 before too long!
