Can't help but say this.  Gary Marshall took that fabulous book by Ann Rice,
"Exit to Eden" and turned it into Gilligan's Island without clothes.  It had a lot
of nudity and sex and was the most disgusting movie I'd ever seen.  Not
because of the nudity and sex (which I usually like), but the way they did it.
Even the actors, in shame, refuse to talk about that piece of trash.

Beware of Hollywood.  They have their own vision and its in your
pocketbook.
