  "Overdrawn at the Memory Bank" is apparently going to be shown on
American Playhouse on PBS some time during the week of Feb. 4. (check
local listings, etc.)... The promos make one uneasy: they say the plot
revolves around someone who "finds the secret code for unlocking movies."
They show someone sitting next to a pseudo-Bogart in Rick's cafe. It
doesn't sound like they took too much from the Varley short story...
In fact, it sounds like they only took the title, and not much else.
Well, we'll see....
