Re: “At the Cannes Film Festival: The New Woody, Sex Games and the Return of Lynne Ramsay”
This film isn't based on the Rice novel at all--I've read the Rice novel. And my name's Simon, not Lisa.

Re: “The Inessential Graham Greene”
Thanks, Michal. As always, you're too kind.
Intriguing theory, Michal and one that I think holds a lot of water. I may have to rewatch THE THIRD MAN see what kind of gay lover Orson makes. ;)
Also, yeah, that scene with the little old lady is pretty striking. I think the scene where the town is herded into the church and the German paratroopers are addressing them is pretty great. The use of shadows in that church are unmistakably something Greene is preoccupied by.
