I'm a little late to THIS party but I'm really enjoying it. I watched Lawrence Lessig on CSPAN2 talking about intellectual property rights. It was very engaging and insightful: I've read some of his stuff but he's obviously got a knack for speaking clearly and demarcating issues well. He cited the above as an example of great art illegal under current copyright law.


I watched Brazil for the first time tonight. I'd downloaded a few months ago but left it on Laura's computer. Incredibly good, with striking pervasive relevance to government and capitalism today. Everyone go watch the director's cut soon.
