BlankFriends,
This past weekend I went to see the movie, TEAM AMERICA, because a close
friend of mine worked on it as the Assistant Director. As you may or may
not know, this movie was made by the 2 men who created "South Park," a
cartoon show on Comedy Central network that is directed at adolescents.
The movie, TEAM AMERICA, stars puppets (!) and attempts to spoof various
political points of view. It is about an anti-terrorist team that seeks to
protect American interests but creates lots of damage in its efforts. It
just as much time spoofing the left-wing actors and actresses who voice
their political points of view. The movie is an "equal-opportunity" attack
on the left and the right.
Early in the movie, the head of TEAM AMERICA decides that the team needs
a new member, someone who is a fabulous actor because this person needs to
"act" as he infiltrates some Middle Eastern terrorists groups. They choose
a guy named Gary who supposedly is a well-known stage actor. After he is
asked to join the team, he turns them down, but then, he goes to different
momuments in Washington, DC, in order to reflect on this decision. He goes
to the Lincoln Memorial, the Jefferson Memorial, the Washington
Monument...and then (quickly), the movie shows the Hahnemann Monument too!
I fell out of the chair!
All of this said, perhaps I hallucinated. Perhaps I saw what I wanted
to see. And for this, I am writing to this list. Has anyone else seen this
movie, and are you familiar enough with what the Hahnemann Monument looks
like in order to confirm my observation?
We all eagerly await to hear from you!
