as with many American films(Malcolm X, The one about the Enigma code, which was bullshit,) they suited themselves what was told. No mention of his boyfriends, the implication that the woman's 'love' got him well which does a dangerous disservice to people with this disease and their carers. In other words it is Hollywood pap. If one is going to make a film about someone's life, have the guts to do it properly or don't bother at all. > the movie has gotten excellent reviews here. in fact, there > is a consensus that Ron Howard, former Opie of Andy Griffith, did an > excellent job as director. the washington post had a big complementary > article in style last week, and they are not quick to complement anyone in > movies and TV. but this is about an American hero so of course it will be lauded, as long as the whole story is sanitized and romanticized. we just had a piece here about the film. both main actors were lauded for their sterling work but the fact the story was crap was also pointed out and thus not considered a 'great' film here in the UK. > > > mary k > > People hurry by so quickly > Don't they hear the melodies > In the chiming and the clicking > And the laughing harmonies > - Joni Mitchell -- bw colin DAK,BRO GC, 950i, 940,860,864,890, 260,Silver 830,860, 580 and 270, Passap 6000, Duo80.
