He is, in most other cases that I've seen, bright, proactive and mesmerizing for curious reasons. That he did something this stupid is fantastic. It is painful to watch a film maker learn, but it makes me feel free and alive to make my own screw ups, right out there in the open. Thanks, Melvin - it's your courage that makes it possible for me NOT to step in this particular pile. ON WITH CREATION! I like that Melvin Van Peebles made a huge smearing mistake like this.
