Leading GOP presidential candidate Mitt Romney has lately settled on a standard stump speech that first cites the Declaration of Independence's "pursuit of happiness" clause and then moves on to suggest that President Barack Obama wants to see "fundamental" change in what Romney contends that famous phrase implies.
As the candidate said dramatically in Muscatine, Iowa, the week before last, the president wants to move the United States toward an "entitlement" society, while he, Romney, wishes to maintain it as an "opportunity" society. The first orientation, the former Massachusetts governor argued, breeds complacency and an enervation of initiative and undoes the American dream by making government the overseer of and provider for all.

It occurred to me about 15 years ago that Sidney Lumet was the greatest filmmaker that America had who was still making movies.
You'd never have known it, though. With such living claimants at the time as Robert Altman and Martin Scorsese (overrated both, as great as they both are), no one was likely to say so.
