So this is really weird, but thereβs a movie loosely based on a Kurt Vonnegut short story called Harrison Bergeron (as opposed to the more accurate and recent short film.) Basically you still have the same concept of trying to handicap everyone to equality, only it isnβt working on Harrison. Heβs scheduled for brain surgery to fix his intelligence. His doctor sends him for a last hurrah to a kind of intelligence whorehouse, where you can talk about science, philosophy, and literature with the beautiful intelligent woman of your choice and maybe have sex if you want. So yes, thereβs a movie where you can discuss literature with your prostitute.
