Shes brilliant, amazingly hot, and a fantastic actress all wrapped into one.

Then she loses her hair and all she has left is her brilliance and acting ability.

There is little doubt that the world in general is more liberal than it was 50 years ago and beyond. Conservatives are simply roadblocks on the path to an ever more progressive and liberal world. What a sad existence.

There is even a part where they say the facist dictator is part of the Republican party. Then they go about talking about how the American war has drove Britian to a facist government.
It wasn't equating facism with the Republican Party. He was fighting against facism, and the fact that people find it easy to equate facism with the Republican Party isn't the film maker's fault, its the Republicans' fault .

Its like Star Wars. People thought George Lucas had some kind of underlying message about the Bush administration. When in actuality he modeled his story off of historical facist and totalitarian rises to power. And the fact that the Bush administration resembles some of this, isn't Lucas's fault, its Bush's.

Perhaps Holywood actually didn't go to the left. Perhaps its just that the rest of the country went to the right.

I saw the movie tonight. I thought it was good. Portman did well and it wasn't over the top anti-republican or anything.

I saw it today. I thought it was spectacular. Very good film. I thought the cast was pretty good. Hugo Weaving was a very good pick to play "V". His preformance was very good.
