The review

Leave it in the can. Leon Czolgosz shot President McKinley and was electrocuted, and Edison's company answered with actors and a prison set. They sold that as a picture of the punishment. It is not the execution. I am not describing it, and it is not going on where a child can find it.

A show of a death is not a record, and it is not a lesson this house needs. The crowd was meant to think they had seen the law finish. They had seen a set. I can say what the man did, and I can say the picture is a fake, and that is the whole conversation I want on a weeknight.

Journal

Keep Execution of Czolgosz in the record.

No house has filed a sentence for this yet.

Live Historic number 9. Yours can differ.

The glance

Industry and Household and Piety and Courage and Republic and Temperance and Truth and Stewardship are the thin ones.

Does anyone here do a real job, and does that job matter?

This phone is set for a grown person, just me. Change the ages.

Consider this

Butthole Surfers: The Hole Truth and Nothing Butt

24 instead of 9

Butthole Surfers: The Hole Truth and Nothing Butt is still a documentary film, and it scores 24 instead of 9. What you gain is truth: A documentary can still tell on them.

The review

Art is not a character. He is a permission slip for a lens that will not cut away. There is no household, no joke with a point, no dare that teaches a limit. The only skill on display is a refusal to be ashamed. That is not an art a house should pay for.

People will say it is only horror and you can look away. The film's whole method is that you do not look away. Decline it once, out loud, so a younger person hears that a strong stomach is not a virtue.
