I've seen the movie "Being There" a few times and loved it.  I have also
read the book by Kosinski.  It is also very good but it does differ from
the movie.  It is short, but it provides some insight into how Kosinski
viewed Chance as opposed to how the director of the movie viewed Chance.
I suggest that if you liked the movie you should read the book.
