...Thomas Woodrow Wilson-A Psychological Study, by Sigmund Freud and William Bullitt, it is written: "When a man gives various unconvincing explanations of an act, one must suspect that the real reason for the act lies in the unconscious." Could this not also apply to Senator Kennedy's superego...
...Blame. Parents of autistic children have never had much reason for hope. Until Dr. Leo Kanner of Johns Hopkins University identified and defined the disease in 1943, most doctors concluded that autistic children were mentally retarded, and could recommend nothing more than packing them off to a vegetable-like existence in a custodial institution.

When the director isn't senselessly simulating documentary reality--for some incomprehensible reason he feels compelled to film every passenger clambering aboard the truck--he is indulging himself in cheap pyrotechnics. For what it's worth, a smidgen of narrative tension is supplied by a dissident passenger who knows what Sao Paolo holds and how their employers will treat them: "Your have to watch out for those gringoes ... they don't like paying money for nothing." He plans to give them the slip once they hit the city, or else...
