Re Hollywood vs Reality

They should have included "Walk The Line." That movie about Johnny Cash was mostly fiction. Rosanne Cash was asked if she saw the movie and she said "No, why should I watch a fictionalized version of my life when I lived the real thing."(or words to that affect)

A Beautiful Mind is another one that wasn't anything like real life. Sometimes, I wish I didn't know the truth because the movie version is so much more touching.

Had to laugh to see Rudy on that list. Was forced to watch it last month. I still have flashbacks. Horrible, horrible film.
