Outside of the character names and "handicaps" concept, there are few narrative similarities between it and the original story. However, there are themes that parallel those found in Vonnegut's piece. It's worth a viewing - not only for enjoyment but also as a curiosity piece regarding certain actors. > > Rotten Tomatoes describes the film as the following: "In the dystopian 2050s, a despotic American government forces all citizens to wear headsets that decrease their brain function, but young Harrison Bergeron (Sean Astin) continues to exhibit signs of intelligence. Just before he is to undergo an enforced lobotomy, agents of the secret intellectual society led by John Klaxon (Christopher Plummer) free Harrison and offer him the opportunity to live a creative life around interesting people, like the beautiful Phillipa (Miranda de Pencier)." > > I have no copyright claims to this film. ## Details - [libremdb](https://farside.link/libremdb/title/tt0113264 "libremdb: A free & open source IMDb front-end") ／ [IMDb](https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0113264 "Internet Movie Database") - [Letterboxd](https://letterboxd.com/film/harrison-bergeron/) - [Trakt](https://trakt.tv/movies/harrison-bergeron-1995)
