docudrama opens in Denver today at one of our small art/film houses. Review says it is pretty chilling (based on Chapman's diary and repeated verbatim by the killer throughout the movie).

Anybody seen it yet?

I prefer to totally ignore those who commit heinous acts to gain public notoriety. Why reward them?

It seems to be "the thing to do" these days.

I doubt that Chapman is being rewarded for the movie.

Possibly was paid for the use of his journal?
Isn't there some law that prevents felons from profiting?

I may be wrong, but I believe there was a non-retroactive "start time" for that law, and he preceeded it
. . like I said, I could be wrong, but I think that's how I read it . . .

This might help. Might not be totally accurate but is probably close.

It's possible that the script of the film was culled from his diary (that was probably entered as evidence, thereby making it PublicRecord) as opposed to something he was paid for writing . . .

WhoCares?? . . just FRY 'im, let's call it a day!!! . . .

Anyone seen Dennis Leary's "No Cure for Cancer" ? He collapses to the floor in outrage: "We live in a country, where John Lennon takes six bullets in the chest, Yoko Ono was standing right next to him and not one f@%*ing bullet! Explain that to me! Explain that to me, God! Explain it to me, God! ... Now we've got twenty-five more years (imitates Yoko's psychotic yammering 'yayayayayaya')" :(

Amen. Leary's great. Love Rescue Me too. My favorite show on the tube.
