can we have salma hayek as the smoking, sultry confidence artist? maybe kerry washington as the straight-laced, tightly-wound accountant who’s got the details on the score and has some kind of terrible secret that’s driving her to crime to come up with the money?

whaaat, you think a software developer / reality tv star would look bad in a debate with a lawyer / public servant? well i never!

my dog is a similar dog but where this dog is confident and self-assured, foxy brown is anxious and gormless
