"Ignorance makes me forlorn." - Allen Ginsberg
“Condemnation without investigation is the height of ignorance” - Albert Einstein
I don’t think this is in any way a “pernicious subject. What is pernicious about it? Attempting to bring light to a subject long clouded in mystery and mythology is an enormously enlightening task.

No, I pretty much stand by my review. As I said, though I wish Orly Silbersatz had toned it down a bit, she seems to be in tune with the character as written. Her performance is my only objection,...
Don't give me judgmental and dismissive or junk about me being "too educated and too witty." I am only interested in one thing - to ascertain the truth and for that I look at evidence and follow it...
I had to import an Israeli DVD from e-Bay, then convert it to NTSC.
It's probably not as good as Broken Wings but I loved it anyway. It is definitely darker. The biggest drawback for me was the...

Surprise, surprise! Shakespeare “scholar” James Shapiro has stated publicly that his recent book was designed to quash the Oxfordians once and for all. The academic establishment are the ones whose...
No one ever said that “a commoner could not have been a great writer.” Who did you ever hear say that? Genius can spring from every walk of life and every layer of society. The debate is not,...
I'm sure you must have known that statement would draw a reaction.
I can't believe you said that. Are you still insisting that the film does not make any sense after the review I sent you, and all the discussion we had? Some people thought it made perfect sense, but...

True enough.
Thanks fir the complement. My only problem now is whether or not he really wanted her for a sexual relationship or that was just her perception.
Clarification of that will have to wait until it...
Yes, I can see the way I put it leads to a misunderstanding. What I meant was that she was seeking a relationship and not just sex but he wasn't interested in a long term relationship, so in that...
If you think this is certainly slightly off, please explain to me why it is incorrect and what you think actually happened. I'm sorry that you think you still don't understand the film.
From my point of view, all of these questions do not really matter in the big scheme of things. Her economic status was not relevant. As for her relationship with her mother, the final scene of the...
I’m sorry that you didn’t feel engaged with this film and thought the main characters seemed unengaged. I had a different experience. I could definitely feel the pain of Prudence’s loneliness and...
Oh, sorry. I was in a hurry and misread your post. Anyway, it deserves to be widely recognized. Thanks for the link to Incendies. I didn't see it the first time I looked.
Congratulations on your review being so widely recognized. It is quite good. By the way, you didn't link to my review of Incendies. Was that an oversight?

My sense of humor is neither Canadian nor particularly subtle. It is universal (meaning humor has a universal appeal)
That's all you noticed - that I was trying to be cute about Justin Bieber? You must have lost your sense of humor somewhere in the Larchmont Hotel.
If you noticed, I wasn't taking the film all...
