If you'd like, you can read my latest film column online
It's a tie-in to the release of The Simpsons.
Actually they've changed a few "Americanisms" ... which I think makes the prose less elegant, but hey -- I'm not the editor.
Which ones, you ask ... well 1. My first para ended with "What's up doc?" and my last line was "Th-th-th-that's all folks" -- putting a full stop to the Porky Pig ref 2. My 2nd para called them suburban shlubs -- they changed to boneheads, which doesn't quite equate; and I ended with kick political butt ... which they've anglicized to arse ... sigh!
But the meaning, I think, is all there. I hope you find it interesting. The links at the end of the piece might be of particular interest.
