We don’t approve many comments (although a good qualifier is coming after me or talking about Ayn Rand). You’ve recovered nicely, in my estimation, with this latest exchange. Worthy of effort, in any case, as should be everyone. However, I’ll not lose any sleep over it.īut, I suspect you might be a good lad. You are assuming I could interpret the way you process and/ or deliver information. July 12th, 2011 at 9:47 am Brian Patrick Cork Says:.If I ever get to act in a movie, I want it to be a remake of Beau Geste.īy the way… anything that has something to do with the French Foreign Legion has awesomeness all over it. …see… viral marketing, at it’s best and most natural. that means you just might talk about it at a cocktail party, or at Lake Lanier while you are hosing down the boat. it’s feasible you will investigate just why I draw comparisons between such disparate books. but, opinions only gather power when both sides are ably considered, eh. mind you, be prepared for elements of these books that are directly conflicted one with the other. then after reading this blog post you just might start thinking a bit more about the Bible – and, Atlas Shrugged. do it! and, when you do, guess what? you’ll tell your friends about it. You need to read it ( The Fountainhead, and Beau Geste – just so we are clear). Wren.īy the way… never underestimate Ray Milland. for the record, Beau Geste is a 1924 adventure novel by P. My best answer is he also played the title character in the film of the 1939 film Beau Geste (the 1926 version was pretty good, just not the way Cooper pulled it off). many of you reading this post are probably scratching your heads, and collectively asking: Rand wrote the screenplay, and Gary Cooper played Roark. the novel was made into a Hollywood film in 1949.
despite mixed reviews from the contemporary media, the book gained a following by word of mouth and became a bestseller. The Fountainhead manuscript, for example, was rejected by twelve publishers before a young editor, Archibald Ogden, at the Bobbs-Merrill Company apparently risked his job to get it published. ironically, reading The Fountainhead and the Bible just might help you appreciate both in somewhat unexpected ways.
so, I’ll add some detail, here to your understanding of The Fountainhead (but, maybe, more so, Rand’s epic Atlas Shrugged). I’ll gamble that most of my readers know what the Bible is and does. but, you can assign it as virally relevant by its growth in readership.Īll three evidently touch people in a way that cause them to spread the word, so to speak. my own blog (this blog, in fact) is not terrific, or great, by any measure. In any event, great books that are examples of viral marketing include the Bible, and The Fountainhead. NOTE: he has no idea that, at fifty (I’ll be one hundred years old in fifty years), I have invented the cure for stupidity. I had a younger fellow that used to work around me whom appeared to genuinely believe that every meaningful piece of technology or process was unique, if not invented, by his particular generation, or those that are following. It occurred to me that great books are a terrific example of viral marketing.

I recently wrote about the new Atlas Shrugged movie with some notes related to Ayn Rand’s first novel, The Fountainhead.
