...Filmmakers don't want to limit their audiences in terms of the number of people that can buy tickets. But I'd like to see nothing more than an appealing director make a very good film that goes out with an 'NC-17' like Ang Lee did with Lust, Caution. Then again, that was a foreign language film, so it didn't appeal to as many people as an English language film would...
...campaign's caution is understandable. With Obama leading in all the national polls, only a few things would seem to have the potential to throw him off course.

McCain was correct when he argued that Obama's aversion to drama...
