A note on Hollywood-Elsewhere about David Fincher's The Curious Case of Benjamin Button .... an extremely positive third or fourth or fifth-hand review from a projectionist. "It's over" is the quote about the best picture race.
Due to a recent Federal Trade Commission decision, I think it best to reveal that, yes, I receive free admission to most of the films that I review. This is the standard practice among film reviewers, and it does not affect my opinion. Unless noted otherwise, you should assume that I received free admission. I have never been on a junket and I do not plan to start. Although in the future, it is possible that I might decide to start interviewing actors, directors, etc.
