And the thing too is the disability we’re presented with is one that will appeal to wide audiences. It’s not a “deformity” or paraplegia or elephantiasis or something that would really confront the viewer’s notions of beauty. It is a woman who cannot speak. In some ways, she’s presented as a woman calculated to gain…

You raise an interesting and important point.

I’ll just say I saw this movie yesterday and cried like a baby and everyone should see it. It’s beautiful and strange and satisfying and not your typical Oscar bait yawn fest.

Also, the heroes are a woman with a disability, a black woman, and a gay man and the villain is basically a stand-in for toxic white…

what in the hell are you talking about?? Wash your crock pot!!

White folks who like to call themselves allies please take note. She acknowledged she didnt know shit, LISTENED, then did something meaningful without making it about her.

Even though I wasn’t a big fan of Three Billboards, I kind of want Sam Rockwell to win if only so that his dad will post another NYT comment.

It was the best movie I watched on a plane in 2017.

I’m a dyed-in-the-wool PNW liberal and there is no way in hell I would vote for her.

welp, what can I say, you’ve picked quite the hill to die on. I’m sure it’s the same one you’ve staked out for Ray Lewis, OJ Simpson, and the Menendez Brothers.

Sure, Millie Bobby Brown is not yet 14, but let’s immediately toss her into the slimepit of gossip as it relates to women celebrities. Stay tuned for such prurient classics as: “Is she still a virgin?” “Will she marry him?” “Are they breaking up?” “Has post-breakup Millie become a skank?”... and on and on and on.

Me too.

She’s full of shit, though. She claims she “didn’t know” what Allen had done. In 2012, she didn’t know? We’ve known for 20 years. No, the truth is that she has gotten more clout and money by working with him so now she’s in a safe position to say she regrets working with him and won’t again.

Man, this guy can’t even live up to his name. Using racial slurs is the easiest way to draw people’s attention to your identity.

Yep, especially when Obama was fairly mum on the issue (and similar threats were made at the federal level during his administration, albeit much more passively).

Not sure why the Dem’s don’t jump all over this. If the Dem’s come out as the pro-marijuana party, at least for those states that vote for this, I really think they would get the youth vote. And isn’t that what they need? To energize those damn youths to get up off their asses to vote? Promising them legal weed seems…

Cooke comments are merely continuing the tradition of honor, respect and pride synonymous with the Redskins name.

Yeah, but he still gets jealous.

Not even enough to pay for the funeral...

I hope Paul Sorvino gives Harvey $3,200 and then tries to have him whacked.
