In 1961, Salinger denied Elia Kazan permission to direct a stage adaptation of Catcher for Broadway.[33] More recently, Salinger's agents received bids for the Catcher movie rights from Harvey Weinstein and Steven Spielberg,[34] neither of which was even passed on to Salinger for consideration.In 2003, the BBC television program The Big Read featured The Catcher in the Rye, intercutting discussions of the novel with "a series of short films that featured an actor playing Salinger's adolescent antihero, Holden Caulfield."[33] The show defended its unlicensed adaptation of the novel by claiming to be a "literary review," and no major charges were filed.According to a speculative article in The Guardian in May 2006, there are rumors that director Terrence Malick has been linked to a possible screen adaptation of the novel.[35] >> By WikiPedia
