JK2006	It was predominantly intended as entertainment, Hedda. If it also conveyed my view of the reality accurately, I regard that as a bonus (great acting though).

I love A Man For All Seasons though all Mantel's novels show Sir Thomas More in a totally different light. Doesn't make either film/novel any worse or any better. Entertainment is very different from history and never the twain shall meet. The problem is mistaking one for the other. shurley shome mishtake ? I saw a movie called Vile Pervert that accurately reflects the truth
Insight	Quote JK: "Entertainment is very different from history and never the twain shall meet. The problem is mistaking one for the other." Surely, the problem IS that propgandising HollyWeird arm of the heirachy, DELIBERATELY mistakes one for the other?

If you don't care about historical facts you can watch "Generation War", starting on BBC 2 tonight at 9.30: www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b042tpmx The battle scenes etc. are "state of the art", but the ideology behind the (conventional) story is unbearable (for me).
hedda	Brush with fame #102 met Todd once in Sydney- he was here to open an Ar Deco Fair- he was a huge fan of Deco. Tiny little person..must have been about 5'4" but devilishly handsome even in his late 70s.
