The Cement Garden - Ian McEwan
In other news, this guy from the Guardian is fucking insane.
"More than any other political movie this year it has the courage to suggest that all that is wrong with America today was evident in that first hour of the nation's life: the loved and hated, always misunderstood Other needing to be tamed, converted or destroyed by the vulgar, greedy, overarmed white man. As for the Indians, so too for the African slaves, the Vietnamese, the Iraqis and, perhaps one day, for the weaker citizens of America itself."
Mental.
To its credit, yesterday's Guardian provided further evidence for American's cultural excellence with a rundown of the chants at the US-England friendly in Chicago earlier this year:
Not only did they sport T-shirts proclaiming "Tea is for pussies", "Beach Boys kick Beatles' ass", "Beckham is a Fairy", "FDR can't save you now", "Magna Carta this..." and "We own Man U", but - led by a drummer - they taunted David James for an entire half with: "We Have Dentists!"
Boom boom boom-boom-boom
"We Have Dentists!"
Boom boom boom-boom-boom
"We Have Dentists!"
Boom boom boom-boom-boom
"We Have Dentists!"
Boom boom boom-boom-boom
"We Have Dentists!"
Boom boom boom-boom-boom.
