I asked you a couple of questions about why Hollywood hates businessmen on the screen. You chose instead to assume that I had my mind made up not to like it, or even to see it. You couldn't be more wrong (although I hardly know you -- maybe you could be!): I actually made up my mind *to* see it. Whether I'll like it is a separate matter.Nor did you address my questions! I was hoping you'd note the irony of the hatefulness portrayed on screen, compared to the utter savagery with which businessmen do behave in Hollywood.
As for calling a woman "not terribly bright"... or, worse... well... I'm forwarding your note to NOW. Expect a punch on your nose.
