Anybody seen “Hurt Locker”? The director dolly had some nice things to say about the troops while Babs the Nose boiled behind her at the Oscars.

When an actor essentially typecast himslef as a political activist of the most vile sort, its hard to separate them from their roles. I also choose not to enrich them, I add Clooney to the list.

To #3: That is one of my criteria. There are actors that I cannot disassociate their public actions with the role they are playing. It works both ways. Since I believe in their right to free speech, I have the right to not support their career when they say and do things I think are stupid and harmful. I also have the right to see a movie that may be horrible, but I really like the actor.

Good rule of thumb: Avoid Sean Penn and Matt Damon movies period. That means no more Bourne movies.
