...much more worrying if it were to fail. We should draw China, and India as well, into global leadership on economic and political issues. ISN'T THAT ALREADY HAPPENING? Too often we've given the impression we're in favor of rules-based global governance, provided the rules suit us. I'm seriously worried about growing protectionism in the West...
...glee in isolating themselves from their parents? It seems the directors shamefully saw the lyrics as two-dimensionally as their artwork. “Laika” is not quite as insulting to its source material, and at times its grotesqueries (most notably the skull/sperm-headed mother of young Alexander) suit the psychological torture in the protagonist’s unstable mind.

The movie's appeal is all in its style; its substance...
...hadn't had that much room in a car since he was 10 years younger and a foot shorter. And there's an optional rear roof window, adding to the roomy, open feeling. You can even raise the car's height to suit your driving style--sport or comfort--although the difference wasn't all that notable...
