...equivalent of Hitler coming back to life and coming to Boston," said Nick Giannone of Quincy, Massachusetts. "This guy's a straight-up fascist. I also find it pretty appalling that someone would pay $2,500 to sit in a room with a war criminal...
...played with lusty high spirits by Diane Lane - was the wife of Eddie Mannix (Bob Hoskins), who was Louis B. Mayer's enforcer at M-G-M, the man who knew all the studio's secrets, scandalous and otherwise, and made sure they stayed secret.

A Prime Minister on his way out just doesn't have the juice: his threats of punishment and promises of advancement ring hollow. MPs start jockeying for the next guy's approval - and the bitter feud between Blair and Brown means no one wants to be the last to jump from the sinking S.S. Blair...
