Let God Be God

A Rare and Fine Actor
can also be a very
common, self-serving
As...hole--

Sort of like,
all poets are writers
but all writers
are not necessarily
poets—nor even
literate;

I guess, what I’m saying
in the Round-about is,
Let God be God
while knowing that
men will always be
men when it comes
to sex and politics….

Panagiota Romios Date: 9/13/2019 7:13:00 PM Oh, I thought Hollywood was the new Papacy? LOL. There's plenty I cannot say here. Moron-hood would be a better name. The movies get weirder all the time. Movies in the 80's were better.)) I hate text messages in movies. Ugh, Panagiota Login to Reply Panagiota Romios Date: 9/20/2019 6:09:00 AM Re: Hollywood. The public are the ones who pays their salaries by going to movies. Drugs are served on huge plates at Hollywood events. Any of their choice. That does not help.*writers I know attend such events* Add, to that, they think they were elected to run the country and are actively practicing McArthyism to the max. The Red Carpet.a perfect name for these rabid, wealthy socialists. Panagiota. XX Joe Dimino Date: 9/13/2019 9:51:00 PM Hi Panagiota: I don't know what's-up with Hollywood? Other parts of LA seem to be totally neglected. It's for far wiser minds than mine I guess.

Geoffrey Brewer Date: 9/13/2019 3:20:00 PM I have made the same observation, on actors in particular, but also on other artists. Nevertheless I have also observed some men (I include women) who had god-like qualities. But then there’s sex and politics! Login to Reply Joe Dimino Date: 9/13/2019 3:53:00 PM Hi Geoffrey; thank you for commenting. For sure, my statement applies to all fields of art, along with a host of other admirable occupations. Too often we make gods and goddesses of individuals simply because they are outstanding in some way: when, outside of their particular expertise, in many instances they behave as complete morons. There are actors and actresses I once admired, but because of their lunatic public statements, I could not be paid to see one of their films. Just the way I am.
