What are the challenging themes? "Oh no, I fucked someone as a teenager who was very unscrupulous." So has at least half the world.

Also, "Oh no, I can't read. I will fuck a teenager so he reads to me" also... "How the Germans dealt with the legacy of the Holocaust: by putting out." and finally... "Nibble my Nipples: The Kate Winslet Story"

 Re: shut it people...The Reader is NOT conventional bait
I think the Oscars are a warped form of snobbery. Sort of like corporatism being a warped form of communism.

 Re: shut it people...The Reader is NOT conventional bait
If that's so, why do they bother with a big, flashy ceremony and ad campaign? Are they that deeply narcissistic?
