If you did, you probably expected to read some of the hilarious lines in the
movie. If you did, you found that, instead of that, you were reading a rather
dry, uninspiring account of a mentally-challenged young man. What screen
writers can do to a concept is amazing!
Bryson would come out heroic (sexy); Katz, bumbling (fat or lean, definitely
alcoholic). The trail would be wrought with scary but funny traps. The
location could be anywhere there are rhodys. Some scenes might be at the real
spot, like McAfee Knob. Or that spot would be played with so that it looked like
Katz was dangling from it.
