Heh, you got me on the vapid. Political science is my game, not English - wait... I'm an English major too - I just haven't gotten started on the latter yet, hah!

But anyway, here's an example of what I mean re Natalie:

- "My immediate reaction is that torture is wrong."

- "I don't think it's right to take down the Twin Towers."

- "Censorship is bad."

That's some stunning logic right there.

Hey, that's the back of my head! I'm glad I wore a nice shirt today, though I regret not combing my hair.

Also, she didn't lecture, so much as answer questions about her new movie. She was a lot more erudite than the above throw-away quotes indicate, especially the "censorship is bad" one, which came at the end of a well-informed comment that those nations with strict political controls are producing very good movies about the human condition, since they can not comment on current events.

I can't say I'm surprised that the B&W would be so smug in summarizing a speach on Chinese and Iranian film making by lifting one phrase out of context. Anything to make someone famous seem stupid, I suppose.
