"Clutter: The True Story of the Collyer Brothers Who Never Threw Anything Out," which opens next February in Burbank, Calif., is based on a true story. Homer and Langley Collyers were sons of a well-to-do Manhattan family who moved to Harlem in 1909, then a fashionable suburb. As the neighborhood got more shabby, however, the brothers became reclusive. They collected junk and never threw anything away and at their death their 12-room brownstone was filled neck-deep with 180 tons of stuff, the New York Times reports. Both brothers starved to death -- Langley was buried in an avalanche of rubbish when he was bringing dinner to his brother who could not leave his bed.Charles Mims
