Ursula K. Le Guin's The Lathe of Heaven, a story of exploitation and folly.

When I was a child, I saw a film of this story on public television. I thought it was breathtaking, and it wasn't until many years later that I realized it was short story by Le Guin. I never got around to reading the story, but now that you remind me of it, I feel inspired to go seek it out.

I'd love to find the film, though it's often a terrible thing to go back to the loves of childhood with adult tastes and sensibilities. Does anyone else remember a movie called The Lathe of Heaven? Some time in the mid to late seventies?
