If anyone needs me I will be in the museum, lying down next to the bog bodies.

Did people really memorize phone numbers before cell phones, or is that just a movie thing?
2? Questions
I was watching some old shows from the 90s and noticed people would just dial numbers from memory - like they'd call their friends or family without looking anything up.
Made me wonder if that was actually normal back then? Did people genuinely have all their important numbers memorized, or did most folks keep a little address book or written list nearby?

One thing Le Carre says that sticks with me is that making a book into a film is like "turning a cow into beef bullion."

It SOUNDS very dismissive of movies, of course! But it's a very pragmatic and frank description of what the job of adaptation is
