"RETURN OF THE CHICKENSHIT", THE HOLLYWOOD LEFT OSCAR CONTENDER

Hollywood slobbers over "Cold Mountain", a story about a "hero" deserter who leaves his buddies to die while he runs off to his girl friend, a woman he doesn't even know. You may find this disgustingly politically correct movie just plain boring. Nothing in the movie is believable, particularly the fact that not one white southerner in the South supports the South, other than some vicious deserter searchers called The Home Guard who are brutal as hell and I felt the repetition of their name was an attempt to link them with "Homeland Security". Sympathy for deserters in time of war is the typical view from the Hollywood Left in Beverly Hills. Combine a gutless deserter with a super feminist (Renee Zellweger doing everything but bench pressing twice her weight) and you have the Democratic Left in full flower. So we are supposed to "side" with this deserter; a guy who is just like the chickenshits who dodged the draft in Viet Nam leaving others to die in their places; the pricks who now populate the Hollywood Left. A more apt title would be, "Return of the Chickenshit". As an added PC bit, Renee Zellweger plays the feminist icon who can do every physical task on the planet (except fuck), a lie just by looking at her. Lots of people loved the book and maybe they will like the movie, which is being "sold" as a modern Odyssey (classical Greek) and not a story about a gutless deserter who only cares about what he wants and the hell with everyone else. BTW Nicole Kidman stinks BTW Nocole Kidman stinks in this part. Anybody who would desert his friends for the woman as she plays her is an asshole.
