   The movie in question is 'Hide and Seek.' If you loved (or even liked!)
The Adolescence of P-1, you'll despise this movie.
   Although parts of the book were used as a basis for the movie, whoever
wrote the script had no idea what they were doing or saying.
   First, Gregory is a teen-ager in the movie. Second, the movie lasts all
of one hour. Third, the treatment of computers was unrealistic, unlike
the marvelous details of the book and the obvious expertise of the author,
J. Ryan.
   Overall, I thought the movie was interesting but non-worthwhile.
