...earth. I grew up in Ireland during the Troubles and know the anguish one experiences during times like that. It is indeed pure hell being worried your mother and father will be dragged from their home at night, never to be seen again; looking at everything as a potential bomb; and asking why no one offers help. Once again I realize I'm only one person and feel helpless to stop the suffering. Sandra Hoye Spokane, Washington, U.S. On a rare occasion, a book, a movie or, in this case, an article confronts you with enough power...

And the hottest Toronto ticket, the buzz bomb of the Great White North, is another Brit-American mockumentary that is just as politically pointed as Death of a President but with a wildly raucous, satiric tone. It is Borat: Cultural Learnings of America for Make Benefit Glorious Nation of Kazakhstan, whose guide is a purported TV host and "sixth most famous man in Kazakhstan" of the former Soviet Union. Borat is the nom de guerrilla-humor...
