Culled from the film section of The Stranger:

Belle Toujours:

What is this movie really about? What is its core subject, its ultimate matter?

A Scanner Darkly:

What is the core truth of this film based on a Phillip K. Dick short story of the same name?

Bratz:

What is it that makes Bratz, as a cultural phenomenon, great?

Rocket Science:

Where have you seen this film before?

Moliere:

This movie is designed for those who are educated, urban, and middle class. People in the country won’t watch it; the urban poor will stay the hell away from it. Why?

    Must be August. Which, Dog Days aside, is also the name of an upcoming Josh Hartnett movie. Q is not what Charles will say, but what will he ask?

    It's a delightful consistency, isn't it? Sort of a didactic medley!

  • Jack

    Because Audrey, if Mudede didn't pose these questions to us, we would simply never be forced to think thoughtful thoughty thoughts about existentialism, poverty, sexuality and horse fucking.
