Anti-Americanism? No, anti- stupid film resoundig yes ( of course the one I think so to be for my own taste )
Hatred for Hollywood? You must be jocking! Hollywood is the place where the most part of beautiful films have been made.
You do´t think to undertstand, that when some one do some critics it is with the hopes that thinks may improve!
Are the great Hollywood and actors anti-American because the would want a war in Irak? Are they anti-Hollywood when they says that only money count?
You must accept that critics are a constructive way or are you still living in post Mc Carthy aera?
But first you must set yourself free. From inward.
I think that the feeling is getting the same from society to society world wide, thanks moder telecommunucations. for the best AND the worst.
Bashing " Erin " did I? Can´t think of. But you must make the part between " Bashing " and not liking a film...Do you allow us not to like a picture? Oh yes! Thank you..We do the same for you....
As for Brokevich I think it is a nice film, with a wonderful actor ( Finnley ) but it did fail to be more than a nice film but who is awaiting for every film to be a masterpiece?
The political force behind this one ( against big polluated compagnies, for the " small people than we are " very good and educationnal.
That would be 2/ 10 for the film and 7/ 10 for the " good example ".
"Monster Ball" was worth one good look, maybe twice, but the story as good it may have been failed to really attract me.
Well in Europe you may find more culture in every normal guy on the streets that you may find in the USA, that was anyway my impression, but the BEST culture in the world you may find in New-York.
Short, your missive has reach the wrong addressat.
But you should reflect on this as a learning process NOT to put in a too much of an hurry a stamp on every one head, a preconception made of prejudice that you may call your own.
I do hope that this is now clear between you an me. Now as nothing is forever, even less on the net, I wait for the next guy accusing me of anti-Americanism.Patrick
