Weigh in on the New Atlas Shrugged Movie
Ayn Rand's masterpiece Atlas Shrugged is just under 1200 pages. And, no matter how hard we try, there is simply no way to squeeze it all into a single movie verbatim.

Be a part of the process and share your opinion in Galt's Gulch Online now. |

Read the full letter in Galt's Gulch. |
