Cinematic Listology By Cole Abaius on August 22, 2011 | Comments (1)Today is the 91st birthday of a man who will live forever. Ray Bradbury had a profound effect on science fiction, on fantasy, on film, and on the future.

In case you want to discover the writer’s work or want to enjoy them all over again, here are five of those films and where to see them.
