One of my students is soaking up Cannes and Al Gore (!) is making waves at Sundance. Funny, as Cole just asked who might run for President on the Democratic side...Hillary of course, I read about a Senator from Virginia whose name I forgot, and I mentioned that Gore might try again. It's a new campaign style: provide serious information in a format that allows it. Will the public respond to an educational movie geared to adults?
