...district 61% to 39%, says people care about tax relief, education that includes choices for their children and the moral direction of the country. Not good news for Gore. On the subject of moral direction, people act as if Al had been in the room with a Polaroid while Bill turned Monica into a patriot, as if the only way for America finally to exorcise the beast and move on is to drive a stake through Gore's heart...
...clown shot out of his own cannon, so you'd expect his collection to have more of the orangutan behavior and chili-pepper colors you get from, say, David La Chappelle, the celebrity photographer who pinwheeled around John three years ago.

Freeman's Charlie is a more complicated figure. The Polaroid pictures of Betty he carries take on talismanic power for him, and he keeps referring to her as a Doris Day type, which somewhat oversimplifies her--and also, perhaps, betrays his age and his longing for the more coherent times in which he was raised. He may be a hit man, but he's a cultivated one. He claims to read books and listen to symphonies; he manifestly loathes yet loves the volatile Wesley. This is a great, understated performance, wistful and funny, by a superb actor, and maybe...
