[lbo-talk] Children of Men

[Brian Charles Dauth]

CHILDREN OF MEN is the first Hollywood-produced film I know of that has an 
image of Lenin included in its mise en scene in an affirmative context.

Also saw the preview for THE KINGDOM -- CSI in Saudi Arabia, but a fleeting 
moment gives the impression that the film my try to reposition public 
understanding of terrorist bombings.  May be worth a sneak-in for its 
cultural implications rather than its aesthetic merit (a guess since it 
appears to be headed for a January release).
