I'll tell you what's "obscene" - being so afraid of people thinking outside the box that you would actually sue a movie producer over a fictional story line.

Maybe we can work out some sort of three-way trade with France and Italy and send them Ron Howard for Roman Polanski.

something like that could never happen here. since everyone thinks "outside the box" (a phrase that has been "inside the box" for a decade).

what's the history of the movie the Tin Drum in Oklahoma?

(not the Gunter Grass book, since many prolly don't know it exists).
