(Sun. NBC) Aldous Huxley's 1932 novel makes a quot-able TV-movie set in a futuristic world where test-tube children are "decanted" and "promiscuity is a citizen's duty." The only thing that hasn't changed is the press—same yapping reporters as always. The hero (Peter Gallagher) is torn between the pleasures of the new world (including a Prozac-esque pill people pop like breath mints) and the pain and art of the old one. The characters are mere mouthpieces for the author's words, but what words! Huxley's vision appears more prescient with each passing year. My score: 7

BRAVE NEW WORLD (Sun.
NBC) Aldous Huxley's
1932 novel makes a quot-
able TV-movie set in a
futuristic world where
test-tube children are
"decanted" and "promis-
cuity is a citizen's duty."
The only thing that hasn't
changed is the press—
same yapping reporters as
always. The hero (Peter
Gallagher) is torn between
the pleasures of the new world (includ-
ing a Prozac-esque pill people pop like
breath mints) and the pain and art of
the old one. The characters are mere
mouthpieces for the author's words,
but what words! Huxley's vision
appears more prescient with each
passing year. My score: 7
