...least the 30 min. Passion section, much fun this time. The sextet devoted way too much ribaldry to speech impediments and Jesus' termagant mum, and the filmmaking craft, which I'd remembered as spiffy, now looked slack. Only the strong central metaphor remains: of a fellow who is mistaken for Christ and crucified. "The Last Temptation of Christ" has a similar theme: a man slowly discovers...

They all believed that Saddam's Iraq was armed to the mustache with concealed deadly weaponry. Saddam's fault? He too, it turns out, might have been mistaken, having been deceived by scientists and generals too scared to tell their tyrannical boss that the cupboard of toxic weaponry was somewhat bare. So the war that dominated the year, the war that liberated millions, the war that finally captured one of the most horrifying mass murderers in history...
