21. It's from the comedy Arrested Development
One of the best shows on television at the moment. The person in the photo is Byron "Buster" Bluth a man-boy who has many fears. He has had a phobia of sheep ever since he was having his picture taken in a photobooth and a sheep wandered in there with him - the combination of the flashing bulb and the sheep caused him to be terrified.

20. Yes, he is. You can separate a filmmaker's personal life...
from his or her creative ourput. Roman Polanski may not be "Man of the Year" by some people's thinking, but the man IS a brilliant director and has created a memorable body of work (see his latest, "The Pianist", for evidence of that). And Woody Allen should be thought of in the same way. You may not approve of his personal life, but it's idiotic, in the extreme, to completely disregard his creative output (and Woody Allen has positively contributed to film) based solely on whether YOU deplore his personal life.

Only a fat ass would have such a narrow focus on a person's contributions to American culture and film.

22. I agree 100%.
I can't imagine gauging an artist's work by his or her personal life.

And I did see The Pianist. What a movie. A real tear-jerker.
