This all reminds me of this creepy mfer in dress uniform calling for a martial overthrow of the government, which for some reason I ran across...
If I ever take up a(n additional) recreational drug habit, I will inaugurate it with a showing of: That title is great.
Not to be flippant, but possibly related? NY Times: "Dementia Risk Seen in Players in N.F.L. Study" A study commissioned by the National...
I'm interested in the above, and thought the movie completely shortchanged this aspect in order to focus on how precocious Apatow's real-life kids...
I'm not sure if that's a great example. After a few really expensive hurricanes hit Florida (Andrew) and the Carolinas in the 1990s, private...
Well, at least now you know what's being shoveled.
On topic, to those that had a problem with it, why was Moore going after Heston problematic? It wasn't as if Heston had retired from political...
Absolutely not. I've been going off the same thought processes I had when I was three. Never deviate, never surrender.

Where is anyone doing that? How is pointing out that the courts badly mismanaged his legal case in any way diminishing Polanski's crime?
No. 1. No. 2. No. 3. No. This is a terrible aspect of rape trials ("blame the victim"), but had it gone to trial the defense would...
No one here is arguing that child rape is A-OK. What I am saying is that the trial of Polanski for that crime was terribly, terribly flawed, as...
You're not reading me correctly. He wasn't.
Roman Polanski: Wanted & Desired provides a pretty thorough argument for the above claims, including interviewing bailiffs & prosecutors not...
In as much as a minor can give consent (obviously, she cannot), I'm pretty sure Polanski claimed the incident to be consensual. He pled guilty...
I see your point, but there's no proof that his celebrity got him the lenient sentence to begin with. Polanski had a competent lawyer, which...
