Last night I went to see Rise of the Planet of the Apes and although the movie is a little far off from what Hayek envisioned, I felt it followed the book nearly perfectly. A scientist seeks out to solve a problem. His solution addresses the immediate problem, but little is understood about what other ripples it might create until it is too late. The only difference between the book and the movie was that the book is directed toward economic policies. However, had they made the movie end in financial apocalypse it would have been a little boring. Not that financial policy is boring, but because it would be too much like watching the daily news.
