OK. She's a slob, so her mind must be inefficient. But I haven't seen much debate or reasoned rebuttal on this thread about what she actually wrote. I clicked on this thread, thinking I might see some discussion of the review; instead, I read lots of humorous comments about her looks. How enlightening.

And using your criteria, from now on, I'm not going to give full consideration to anything any posters on FR have to say from now on unless I see recent photographs of them. Then I can evaluate how efficient their mental processes are.

Okay, how about her being a hypocrite. Here is a snipit from her review on The Passion:

"The movie is a compendium of tortures that would horrify the regulars at an S&M club."

Here is what the rotund beast says about Terrantino's flicks when reviewing Kill Bill: "Pulp Fiction" and "Reservoir Dogs" fans will be delighted with the in-jokes, gore, movie references, and chunks of flesh and brain splattering the walls.

She wrote the 1995 book "Quentin Tarantino: A Man and His Movies.

"Worshiped like a film star by fans of his ultrahip and violent movies, reviled and condemned by the self-appointed guardians of morality, Quentin Tarantino has become the cult hero of the nineties. Using exclusive material from her interviews with Tarantino and those close to him, Jami Bernard traces his fascinating rise from high school dropout and B-movie junkie to the darling of Hollywood, exploring the philosophy and mythology of the writer and director who has, with just a few explosive films, turned the movie world on its head. With the furor over Reservoir Dogs, the triumph of Pulp Fiction, and the bitter conflict over Natural Born Killers, Tarantino's meteoric rise has been turbulent and headline grabbing. Through the unique inside perspective of those who have worked, played, and done battle with him, Jami Bernard looks beyond the media icon and reveals the man - and his message."
