THE DOOR IN THE FLOOR JUST LEADS TO THE GUTTER

Thanks to friend Frederica Matthews Greene for this great review of the new film Door in the Floor . Based on another novel of John Irving, this film seems calculated to have us all sitting around drinking nostalgically to the insulting propaganda of Cider House Rules. Door has, of course, been getting a lot of buzz here in town for being “important” – which ALWAYS means “morally repugnant” these days.

I am so grateful that Frederica has spared me from having to be smeared with this particular piece of important tripe.
