The film examines the many mysteries that surrounded Salinger's refusal to court the literary fame that came to him anyway, from his experiences fighting in the Second World War to the murderers obsessed with his work (including Mark David Chapman, who shot Beatle John Lennon). Are you a fan of Salinger's books? Which of your favourite writers would you like to see a film about? Share your thoughts in the comments.
