Fahrenheit 451 (1966)

Fahrenheit 451 is the temperature at which book paper burns. In the distant oppressive future books are not tolerated, and there are firefighters are charged with burning the books and punishing the people who are found with books in their possession. Guy Montag is a young up and coming firefighter who begins to question what it is that they are doing as fire fighters. Not only are they not allowed to read or own books, but the citizens much watch the government run messages that are projected on their TV screens in their houses ala 1984. If you can get past the 1960s decor made to look like the distant future, it is an interesting story. Unfortunately for me I was not able to get past the decor. Only two stars for me.
