There was talk quite a while ago here about the rumored "AI" movie. The
tie to IDM? I can't recall... but I figured some might be interested in
this.

[1]Chasuk wrote to us with the word from the Sunday Times that
[2]apparently Steven Spielberg will be directing what would have been
Kubrick's next project - AI. The story is "the tale of a young 'robot'
boy that he likened to the story of Pinocchio." The two had talked
extensively before the latter's death, and were good friends. The
movie is based on the short stoy Supertoys Last All Summer Long, by
Brian Aldiss.
