The Arts at their best are among the best in our society.

I won't make a blanket statement about all the arts, but you are not seeing the movies I am if you think this segment of the arts is among the best our nation has to offer.

You can't even take a child to a children's movie any longer due to the adult material that is inserted for the hell of it.  Every once in a while you can, but you have to go see the movie yourself first, just to make sure.

As for ten to twenty, I could find fifty to one hundred (and probably hundreds) if I could review the Oscar program tape over the last five years.  The liberal agenda is so prevalent that it's simply silly to even discuss the issue with someone who can't see it.

Take care.

re Children’s films: Disney films from the 30s and 40s had all sorts of disturbring subtexts. You still haven’t provided any examples, except Moore, or explained how some actor making a political speech once ever however-long invalidates the importance of movies as a major part of American culture. I see tons of movies. There's no such thing as morally neutral Art. Never has been. If you want to see left wing movies check out Depression era films. It's much less so today then it used to be.
