Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
The Catcher in the Rye!.

Not sure about two movie stars killed though!. Lennon's killer (Chapman) had a copy!. He's not so much a movie star but a singer!. I can't think of the second person!.

But I do believe this is the one you're afterWww@QuestionHome@Com

I have to agree with Michael B!. John Hinkley Jr!. was obsessed with actress Jodie Foster and the film "Taxi Driver" when he attempted to kill Reagan!. He also stalked and sent letters to Foster, but never attempted to kill her!. However, a copy of Catcher in the Rye was found in his home!.

As mentioned Chapman was apparently influenced by the novel when he shot Lennon!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
