[Sosfbay-discuss] FW: LIONS FOR LAMBS

[Kaisha Torres]

I cannot imagine paying money to view another Hollywood movie that
"normalizes" a horrific behavior of our government. I understand art
imitates life but when you take a horrible act and bring it to a screen for
everyone to ingest with a neat and tidy ending, doesn't it stop being
horrific and then become art?

I saw Rendition yesterday.  If you thought Syriana disappeared
out of the theaters fast, watch Rendition vanish.
The torture scenes are relatively mild.  Straightforward
message, the US is kidnapping and torturing people on
really flimsy leads, even though we know it doesn't
produce reliable intelligence.
This is the movie the Jepperson protesters should be
leafletting at, if they can figure out where there
will be audiences of more than a dozen people.  At the
weekday matinee at the Berryessa 10-screen, there were
three people including me.  I wonder if they still
run the projector if they don't sell any seats.
