David: Some People I Saw In Person Today

Jim Carrey
Carol Burnett
Steve Carell

Oh, and, uh....Oprah Winfrey (don't tell anyone about that last one, okay?)

Oh, and Horton Hears a Who ain't too shabby. I think I might try to take Sage to see it.

Where were you?

And, did the film retain the anti-racism theme of the book?

David - ()

Was the book about anti-racism? I don't know.

I was at a taping of The Oprah Winfrey Show.

Nathan Tyree - (Overwhelmed by existential angst)

Yes it was. The good Dr used the Whos to represent Blacks. Horton's mantra, "A person's a person no matter how small", is meant to be easily translated in the mind to 'A person's a person no matter what color'.

Oprah, huh? You like Chicago?

David - ()

Gee, couldn't the Who's just as easily represent the disabled?

I think it's anti-bigotry in general. It's also largely about faith (not necessarily religious) and imagination.

Chicago was cold.
