BROOKS: My frustration is that as we talk about things today, we end up gravitating toward its informational structure. If you were sitting around in 15th century England and wanted to learn about what Shakespeare was about to write, the economics of the theater might enter your discussion, but it wouldn't dominate it. The structure is kind of important, but it doesn't determine...
...this ambitious enterprise: "I don't know--sometimes you get a feeling about something. You have a premonition that you can get something decent out of it," he says. "You just have to trust your gut." He asked Paul Haggis, who wrote Flags, if he would like to write the Japanese version as well. The writer of Million Dollar Baby and director of Crash, Haggis was overbooked but thought an aspiring young Japanese-American screenwriter, Iris Yamashita, who had helped him research Flags, might be able to do it.

He tries to give his speech in Radcliffe Yard, but is rudely interrupted by a group of bothersome feminists yelling...
...street. The driver—a bewildered blonde—apologizes. She is not from here (license plate reads Maine) and is completely lost. Fumicello assists in directing her out of harm’s way. He, as an HUPD officer, has no authority to write ticket violations anyway. 10:18 p.m.: FM has overstayed its welcome. At least we got a free ride home. It’s about forty more minutes of late-night gallivanting for Officer Fumicello and then it’s time to head home—his two terriers await...
