The Monday Morning Memo

“Of course I read The Catcher in the Rye….Wonderful book. 

I loved it. I pursued it. I wanted to make a picture out of it. 
And then one day a young man came to the office of Leland Hayward, my agent, in New York, and said, ‘Please tell Mr. Leland Hayward to lay off. 
He’s very, very insensitive.’ And he walked out. That was the entire speech.
I never saw him. That was J. D. Salinger and that was Catcher in the Rye.”

– Billy Wilder
