Will the movie version of Ayn Rand’s ‘Atlas Shrugged’ divide audiences?

Los Angeles Times, by Carolyn Kellogg Posted By: JoniTx- Wed, 16 Feb 2011 23:08:46 GMT "Someone who knows what it's like to work for himself, and not let others feed off the profits of his energy." So begins the trailer for the movie version of "Atlas Shrugged," based on the book by Ayn Rand. It's coming to theaters April 15, as "Atlas Shrugged: Part 1.""Atlas Shrugged" is a book that's part science fiction, part paean to capitalism. When the 1,168'page book came out in 1957, Robert Kirsch wrote in the L.A. Times:It is probably the worst piece of large fiction written since Miss Rand's equally weighty "The Fountainhead."
