Never read "Slaughterhouse Five", but the movie had the benefit of Valerie Perrine showing her tits.

I'll give it one star for that, and that alone.

Slaughterhouse Five is a masterpiece that I will have to read again soon. Valerie Perrine made a healthy contribution to the movie. She distracted the viewer from any weak points. I'd also recommend Player Piano and Cat's Cradle as strong entries by Vonnegut.
