I wonder how many people my age (mid-fitties) lost our innocence about movies to that one.

Many years ago I mentioned Herman Boone in a story - I don't remember the context or what the story was about - and I got one of those packets the guy in the linked story sends out. As I recall, it was pretty comprehensive and pretty negative toward Boone.
