I'm working on a paper on Robert Altman's "Short Cuts," a film made from
nine separate short stories by Raymond Carver.  I'm wondering if anyone out
there can think of other films made from multiple short stories woven
together.  I know there are some films of Poe stories that divcide a feature
film into three segments, but I'm thinking more of Altman's particular
approach of using several stories by the same writer as the source for a
screenplay.  I'm not interested here in films that are made from a single
short story, of which, of course, there are many.  Thanks for your help,
