Scottie:
This, they tell me, is a collection of transatlantic cliches
- the compulsive, Mary Tyler Moore-type wife,
the 'wise child', the sad middle-ager who establishes
his integrity by confessing to shower wanking -
assembled by a smart ass, luvvie Englishman (Sam Mendes)
with neither sympathy nor understanding of his subject.
I'm having a difficult time seeing any similarity between the
wife of American Beauty and the woman "who could turn the world
on with her smile".
Your son missed a great movie.
