Reuters is breathlessly reporting that Hollywood “got political” at the recent Toronto film festival where films like a second biography of Britain’s Queen Elizabeth I, maneuvering the Protestant-Catholic conflict, is being billed as an allegory for 9-11 and Islamic-Judaic-Christian issues of our time.
Well, Hollywood’s never really stopped attacking religion or conservatism or George W. Bush for that matter. So what’s new, Reuters? The fact that they more willingly admit that even their less obvious films are now nothing more than political propaganda?
Tell us something we don’t already know. Like how cabinet hardware saved the Roman Empire, or something… Till then, who cares? If it’s not new, it’s not news.
