We should all mourn that Hollywood cannot and will not produce pictures for adults -- the way it used to. The problem is, scarcely a week before the LALATimes's ad-blurb copywriter Kenneth Turan demanded "serious, intelligent works with dark [WHY MUST NEWS HACKS USE THAT WORD?!?!?], grown-up themes", his colleague Patrick "The Mogul's Friend" Goldstein was raving over one of the would-be tycoons who makes hits for stupid blind teens. Show-biz news hacks have thoroughly laid waste to the notion of quality in entertainment, first with their mindless raves, and second with their endless valentines.
