"Columbia, Rudin acquire brain rights."

Another headline I like.

The story is about the acquisition of the rights to make a movie about Henry Molaison — AKA H.M. — the man who lost the ability to form new memories as the result of a operation on his brain that was intended to treat his seizures. Molaison's problem made him a useful subject for various experiments. Is that cinematic enough for a movie?

(We talked about Molaison back when his obituary was published.)
