Films That Have Helped You In A Practical Way
David Oberman
using the word "coruscate" incorrectly all these years.
How deflating! I thought it meant "to cut into as if with a scalpel"
but apparently it means nothing more than "to sparkle."
What films have helped you in a practical way?

Tho too numerous to name off the top of my head, there are plenty that
showed me ways not to treat women.
The first one that comes to mind is The Public Enemy. A grapefruit in
the kisser is not a good idea...

Why look to movies to learn how not to treat women when we have Mark
Sanford?

You mean spontaneously leaving all behind and
flying to your woman for a few days of torrid
romance in Argentina is not the way to treat her?

Not if you're married.
Not if you're explaining your adultery by channeling soap opera
dialogue.
Especially not if you're a former member of the Lynch Bill Clinton for
a Blow Job Mob.

Lack of sense of humor noted.

Bill Clinton didn't "have sex with that woman". Turns out Mark
Sanford didn't have sex with four different women.
calvin
With Clinton it was four hundred, but everybody
knew about Clinton's running around long before
he became President. It was doing it in the Oval
Office with a White House intern that turned people off.

It's a great pity that all he did is not fairly viewed because
of this behaviour.
Stone me.

Balancing the budget was a great thing. So was 'don't ask
don't tell', though he renounced it later. What else did he do?

Your problem may be overlapping dialogue.

My point was, in passing, that assessments of careers,
and even lives , are often misjudged, because we have been coaxed
by sensationalist media to focus only on the negative aspects of
people. [We see it in this Group regarding Hollywood people who
have died ]
Sorry to have strayed from the thread.

William Gibson's play and movie, The Miracle Worker,
taught me what a word is.

I learned what a word is by reading John Ellis on Saussure.
