Make Room!". A screen-writer and producer re-worked the short story and novella into the screen-play for "Soylent Green", which starred IIRC Charlton Heston and was most definitely a SF movie. What the name "Soylent Green" means is approximately 'Soya and Lentil protein cake, with green colouring to make it look prettier and differentiate it from Soylent Yellow and another Soylent mix'. What it actually was varied between incarnations of the story. -- Aidan Karley, Geologist, "You are in a maze of twisty little presentation styles, all [different | alike]."
