Has a radio show.
Am listening to sports talk radio at the moment and the hosts are talking about the Academy Award nominations. They're raving about Lincoln, a movie I want to see but not enough to break down and go to the theater. I'll wait until it comes out on video or go to one of those sites that doesn't much care about copyright infringement.
They're especially gushing over the performance of Daniel Day-Lewis and from the short trailers I've seen, he does resemble President Lincoln. One of the male hosts asked the woman on the show if the actor did a good job portraying Lincoln and she said "Spot on! Captures him perfectly!".
Uh, I can understand saying he LOOKS like Lincoln, but how the hell would she know anything else about the man? Lincoln had his photograph taken several times, but there's no recordings of his speech or film of him. Photography was still in its infancy; there were certainly no movies, records or tapes then.
Aw, hell...these idiot talking heads don't know much about sports, why would I expect them to know much of anything about movies?
Yep, they're stupid...but maybe I'm more stupid for listening to them.
