Harrison Bergeron
"All men are not created equal. It is the purpose of the Government to make them so." This is the premise of the Showtime film adaption of Kurt Vonnegut's futuristic short story Harrison Bergeron. The film centers around a young man (Harrison) who is smarter than his peers, and is not affected by the usual "Handicapping" which is used to train all Americans so everyone is of equal intelligence.
Editor's Verdict
"The movie 'Harrison Bergeron' is a straight science fiction/dystopian drama based on a Kurt Vonnegut story. There is no indication in the provided plot summary or genre context that Christmas plays any role in the setting, plot, themes, iconography, or resolution."
