After all, who in the hell would mug Charles Bronson? Jack Lemmon was originally offered the role, which was truer to the novel ("Paul Benjamin" isn't an obvious tough guy).

He tends to try to hijack the writing credits on every movie he works on. Just listen to him on the commentary of FIGHT CLUB where he catches himself after implying he wrote the script.

The movie has no agenda, no politics and a real affection for old Hollywood nostalgia. It's the type of film Hollywood wishes it could still make. France has had an interesting boom in movie production in the last ten years, from action to comedy. It's ok to like their movies. Chirac isn't their prime minister anymore. And DRIVE was robbed.

The PG-13 is completely unwarranted. Marketing has a lot to do with success. THE ARTIST is marketed as Oscar bait arthouse product, thus it sells the tickets of an arthouse film.

Love his work, but Wayne was not infallible. Try watching THE CONQUEROR, TYCOON or JET PILOT sometime.

Their movies are fun, especially when you ignore the knee jerk critical fawning. I know plenty of working class rednecks that love, and I mean LOVE, most of their movies.

I don't recall any nudity, since it was PG-13. Is the dvd an R-rated cut with extra gore and skin? It is fun on a "silly B movie" level.

Having read GAME CHANGE, the bulk of the book is actually about Hilary Clinton, John Edwards and Barack Obama. Edwards and Joe Biden come off worse than anybody else. The Palin stuff is barely 10% of the book. And that's what Jay Roach chose to focus on?
