I’ve always liked her. I like her even more now.
“Chelsea Handler: …I know you’re an Ayn Rand fan, right?
Anne Hathaway: Yeah, I am.
Handler: What’s your favorite Ayn Rand book?
Hathaway: Atlas Shrugged. 
Handler: Did you like that better than The Fountainhead?
Hathaway: I did. When I began Atlas Shrugged, I was really excited, because Ayn Rand said that The Fountainhead was the overture to Atlas Shrugged. I was like, “Ooh! What am I getting into?” Whether or not you agree with Ayn Rand-and I have certain issues with some of her beliefs-the woman can tell a story. I mean, the novel as an art form is just in full florid bloom in Atlas Shrugged. It’s an unbelievable story. The characters are so compelling, and what she’s saying is mind-expanding. I really enjoyed that book, and it was kind of prophetic. I read that book for the first time during the Bush Administration and I was like, “People are governing with their feelings as opposed to their intellect. This is happening.” And she wrote this how many years ago?”
Great to see due admiration for Ayn Rand!
Great, indeed!
What a joy to find such clear thinking. Thanks for potsnig!
Sorry, Miss Hathaway is at a fundraiser for Barry Soetoro today in CT.
