The footnote is wrong. Bette Davis speaks the line, but she did not write the line. Give appropriate credit is Joseph Mankiewicz.

I disagree. The only appropriate rebuff is surely, "Quiet, piggy."

Trump dishonors the presidency every day.
And his misogyny is blatant for everyone to see.

I rushed to see it. I thought that Remi Malick was miscast, but Russell Crowe was tremendous.

What the GOP doesn't understand is that the left is not invested in shielding prominent people from accountability. You have enough to prosecute Clinton, Summers, etc --bring it on.
But don't say you don't have enough evidence of DJT's guilt.

This is why Nuremberg is the most relevant movie in the theaters right now.

Senator, you always look presentable but this gold/cream textured outfit is the clear winner. I hope you wear it often.

Point of Order is a great documentary. Shows the scene in the Army-McCarthy hearing.

Sometimes people hate on @nytimes.com because they think that it whiffs coverage of right-wing scandals.
But you will notice that it is NOT on that list.
I've long thought that everyone should read the Times. Even when it makes mistakes or annoys you. It is irreplaceable.

I love post-credit sequences. They feel playful. My favorite is the one at the end of Sherlock Holmes. And I'd argue that the placement is narratively perfect because it a) indicates that some time and b) give the viewer information that Holmes doesn't share.

Yeah, well there is a pardon office of the presidency in the US and supposedly you have to apply and be vetted here too. But if a president chooses to hand out pardons to those who pay him lots of money or those who back him politically, no law stops him.

I heard a NYTimes podcast in which two opinion writers said that after Trump we must reform presidential pardon power, which is a vestige of monarchical perks. It certainly encourages corruption.

Thank God neither of my Colorado Senators are on this list, because I would have had a cow.
If your senator is listed, burn up the switchboard!
