I'm also wondering what's going on with Stone given that he has gone from the hard hitting "JFK" to the seemingly conventional "World Trade Center" to the seemingly pointless "W." (Ok, I'll admit to not having seen the last two.) Is he going soft? Is he the victim of mind control?
He's already done more for the JFK case than just about anyone. I'd just hate to lose him to the dark side.
(And thank you for your delicacy.)
Myra: You should find Nixon, it is great. As to Stone, I saw him recently on Larry King and he got to plug JFK and say "conspiracy" with no one pulling the plug. It told me he has not gone soft at all, and with W he made clear that he tried to do a balance piece, not just another bash W film. The media so trashed him for JFK that perhaps he is attempting to regain his former rep. as a director, and then (perhaps?) people would go back and view JFK. Who knows, but he made clear that he is enormously proud of JFK. He should be!
