Ray Bradbury's Bizarre Complaint
Ray Bradbury's Bizarre Complaint
06/20/2004 12:12 AMRay Bradbury is one of the great science fiction writers. But in
his advancing years he's also acting in a fairly petty manner.
The author of the brilliant novel "Fahrenheit
451" is claiming to anyone who'll
listen (AP) that Michael Moore has somehow committed an act of
intellectual theft by naming his new movie "Fahrenheit 9/11" without
asking permission.
He may have a shadow of a point here, but not much more than that.
Here's why.
First, you can't copyright a title. See "What is Not
Protected by Copyright" on the website of the U.S. Patent &
Trademark Office. If Bradbury or anyone connected to him is even
thinking of suing, forget it. (There's no trademark on the expression
"Fahrenheit 9/11", by the way.)
Second, Moore didn't use the same title. He did a word-play on
Bradbury's book -- a clever gimmick that resonated with anyone who'd
read the novel, a stark warning against totalitarianism and call for
people to think for themselves. This kind of thing goes on all the
time, and it's part of the artistic process -- building on what came
before by using cultural references (of which Fahrenheit 451 is
deservedly one) in new creative works.
Third, as several people have noted, Bradbury -- author of "Something
Wicked This Way Comes" (William Shakespeare) and "I Sing the Body
Electric" (Walt Whitman)-- wasn't what you'd call fastidious when it
came to totally original titles (not that he should have been).
Apparently Bradbury is mostly bothered by Moore's title for commercial
reasons, because of an upcoming movie based on his book. (Francois
Truffaut did a weird adaptation in the
1960s.) I heard him on a local talk-radio station today, and after he
dumped on Moore he seemed cheerful enough in talking about the
picture. He's certainly getting plenty of publicity mileage, anyway.
The host of the far-right-wing radio show was abysmally uninformed,
meanwhile. She was asking him if he planned to sue Moore. Bradbury
wisely indicated no such plans, because he'd likely be laughed out of
court. (The host also read approvingly from the Foreword to an early
edition of the book. It was by a teacher at a Quaker school. She
plainly missed the irony.)
Moore would have been smart to send a letter to Bradbury months ago,
saying the name of his new film was an homage to one of the
essential pro-freedom and pro-thinking literary works of recent times.
Bradbury would be smart to let this go.

wrong. And this legal complaint ins the proof. By Electronic Frontier
