      Why does the guy who posts on almost every single video-REMant-Have to be such an annoying, contemptible troll. I could go with someone who had more interesting, lively things to say, but thats not the nature of a troll.

      I guess if you miss the television broadcast your poop out of luck.

      So I'll just comment on Mr.Mant's comment; While it is true, there is a province in merry ole' England where the people's faces are flat and their ears are big and stick out and they have very prominent chins (sometimes hooked) too (many of their ancestors can be found deep in the wilderness of Appalachia)(and one of them was a former U.S. President named, Bill Clinton), while that is true, Mr. Mant, the great majority of British ladies are very very beautiful (I'm not even going to bother listing them).

      British women have never been very beautiful and that's perhaps why the Brits seem unable to recognize it. The Victorians and Edwardians were, nevertheless, hardly saints; they just wanted to appear that way. It has become a staple of English lit. The war did make it worse, tho the social disintegration began some years earlier with socialism and suffrage. Remarque also noted the change in attitude esp among those at the front. In any case, I can hardly wait to see Meryl Streep in the picture.
