Certainly wouldn’t hurt them to expand their horizons and creative output. It benefits us all when writers aren’t stuck in boxes and when they allow their imaginations to actually expand beyond “write what you know.”
“Lock, Stock, and Two Smoking Barrels” and “Snatch” are both amazing...but yeah, everything after that has been a disappointment.
You’re right, I’m so glad we went with Clinton. If we’d gone with Bernie, we might have lost!
Out of the number of inside and outside factors behind HRC’s 2016 loss, is someone running against her in the primary really one of the biggest?
Let it go.
Gun violence was higher 25 years ago, yes. But that’s ALL gun violence. The ebbing of violent crime across the board has brought that down a lot, thank goodness.

He was a lesser voice as he got older but he was a great writer in his prime. Not for everybody, but I'd love to see what scorn and derision he'd heap on the current election.
It’s too little, too late, but it beats serving out that outrageous sentence.
