I am a maniac plagiarist inspired here today by a distant acquaintance who reported laughing his ass off watching another cynical exploitation tearjerker about some war catastrophe, that he said was full of historical lies and manipulative propaganda. Another maniac who wouldn’t buy the agitprop bullshit of the hateful communists that produce such trash. And in any event and always, it’s only a movie.
Well, maniac was pretty strong.
I used the term in reference to your willingness to rattle the cage and take the clawing to follow.
As I say I always appreciate your comments.
I have yet to see a Spielberg or for that matter Ron Howard film that I didn’t react to in the same manner as your friend. Of course I think I gave up in nausea after viewing Close Encounters some 35 years ago...indeed that was the first time I really realized how out of step I was with the growing, weeping, maudlin masses of the U.S.
