Has anyone on the list seen the new Kevin Smith movie Dogma? The Catholic League has been protesting a lot, telling people not to see it. I haven't seen it, but I've read the script on the internet and I think it's great, says a lot of things that are true. It's as if catholic people can't stand people pointing out the stupid things in the bible. What's your view on censorship? I know this has nothing to do with salinger, but hey, you were talking about australian movies. And censorship, catcher being banned, salinger, err... that's kind of a link. Or maybe not. Still, I started thinking, if this was a movie about muslims, or allah or something, and made a lot of fun of their religion, everyone would probably go crazy and say the moviemakers were bigots and racists or something. It's the same thing as it's ok to make fun of white people, but if you make fun of black or asian people you're a racist. I've seen a lot of black stand-up comedians make fun of white people, but never a white one making fun of black people. And I'm not at all a racist or a white-supremist, I just started thinking about this. Were there any black people in salinger's stories? I don't remember. (There, tied it nicely to salinger ;) -Grant- "And then he spun a twisted tale about a child who cried his name so many times that even when he yelled, no one ever came" (grant lee buffalo) _____________________________________________ Free email with cool domains at FriendlyEmail http://www.mypad.com/
