Re: [MOPO] mopo- what do movies mean to the public and society & pop culture

and just how many of today's stars would anyone want to emulate? There are a few who seem to give unselfishly of their money and time in support of a variety of philanthropic causes, but so many are certainly not role models for anything. They more often seem to be the poster children for substan
