Is this real? It doesn't look real.
I can't really understand why it would be real.

Objectivism is a fucking fairy tale and the entire point of the novel was to establish that philosophy.

The characters in the novel  were cardboard and the plot was tired, so from a narrative standpoint, a film adaptation doesn't make sense.

So, we can assume that by creating a modernized adaptation of this story (which doesn't make much sense seeing as taggart was operational in a time when locomotive transport was an absolute necessity), the director/producer/everyone is trying to reanimate a tired, defunct faux-philosophy. Why?

fitting for a book promoting capitalism

I don't care about objectivism but I like the Fountainhead and I like Anthem. This movie is going to be awful and much worse than the book. The book isn't the best to begin with. Haha

I think it's really weird that they decided to put it in a modern day setting because railroads wouldn't be as prominent now and also it's not as big of a deal that Dagny Taggart, a woman, controls the company
