Today’s Hollywood movies, even the
good ones, are breathless, formulaic to a fare-thee-well and as physically
impossible as a Road Runner cartoon at least once every 20 minutes.
Hollywood morality is, of course,
no better than its physics. Children who grow up on a diet of contemporary
Hollywood fare could be forgiven for believing that the two most common
professions are “assassin” and “prostitute.”
Or even “assassin prostitute,” my
friend Philip Martin suggested. “Assassitute?”
The first rule of assassitute
training is "Sex, then murder." The other way around is icky. And
corpses are notoriously slow to pay.
