Art as an aesthetic principle was supported by thousands of years of discernment and psychic rewards, but art as a commodity was held up by air.

For a while, Mirabelle believes there will be a moment when he will cave in and let himself love her, but eventually she lets the idea go. She hits bottom. She dwells in the muck for several months, not depressed exactly, but involved in a mourning that at first she thinks is for Ray but soon realizes is for the loss of her old self.

I just think they should get a fair shake. They didn't. They didn't have the rights regular criminals get.
By the way, the proceeds from tonight's telecast -- and I think this is so great -- will be divvied up between huge corporations.
If she doesn't get an Academy Award nomination, I will kill myself.
While my fervent hope is we can get the entire amount ... I think we need to have some idea what we would lose.
