First a man who helped invent the live-action Road Runner cartoon blamed "middle managers." Now the director of Fiddler on the Roof blames "huge multinational corporations." Peter Biskind should be hugging himself; it shows the kind of pernicious influence his five-hundred-plus pages of insider scribble have on Hollywood hacks. By assigning blame to "management" and "corporations" Peter allowed Hollywood to blame NO ONE; or to paraphrase the director of ROLLERBALL (which he himself has called a proud achievement), "S-! happens." HOLLYWOODIANS WILL NEVER SAY I DID IT.
