Dumb Moments in the Lives of Famous People

When Demi Moore starred in the remake of The Scarlet Letter, viewers were surprised that the film depicted her being rescued from the Puritans by Indians, then ending with a happy love affair. But Demi was unconcerned with the film's rather large poetic license because "not many people have read the book." Except, of course, for just about everyone who ever went to high school, since the novel had been required reading for decades.

Ah yes. That movie came out while I was IN high school, and right after we had to read The Scarlet Letter. I took a friend with me to see it, and he won't ever let me live down my reaction to the movie. The entire time they were taking their "poetic license", I was saying, "THIS IS NOTHING LIKE THE BOOK!" Lather, rinse, repeat - throughout the entire movie.

I didn't lather, rinse, repeat very much, and just turned the thing off. Whew.
