In addition to the PLEASANTVILLE reference, check out the scene in DEEP
IMPACT where Robert Duvall reads to the blinded astronaut.  The younger
guy talks about how he's from the TV/video generation, something like
that.  Duvall responds, clasping a copy of HUCK FINN and MOBY DICK.
Although he reads from the latter, it was a nice plug for the work.
