Our forum ad appears in Variety today.
The only thing wrong with it is that on the opposite page is an
article about turning 'crash' into a tv series.

Will this film never stop haunting us, even in our sadness...
Look at it this way: most people thought that it belonged on TV in the first place, and if it did, it may very well go the way of "The Black Donnellys." (Go back and read the reviews; for the most part they were savage--towards the show, towards Paul Haggis, towards "Crash," etc.)
Compare that to our ad, and think about what this really shows how a work of art--and its artist--touched people and continues to touch people. That's the more lasting significance.
Now, since no place in Portland apparently carried Variety,
would one of you lovely volunteers send me a spare copy? I'll pay for the issue and shipping; just e-mail me for the address. Thanks a million.
