Have no fear, Tango Tango. They invented home video for you.

The critics "darlings" are usually sooooo PC. I think most critics don't want to fall into the trap Pauline Kael did when she panned 2001: A Space Odyssey. Poor girl. She never lived that one down....

GRAB A SPINE, YOU YUPPIE CRITICS! I really hate the ones who think that panning say, The Matrix Reloaded is chic but dismissing say, Ozon's Swimming Pool is uber-intelligent.

Give me a break. I read Film Comment (one of only 2 film mags I subscribe to) and they narrowly avoid this. (I guess it's because they are "smart about movies"....)
