The Third Estate Sunday Review focuses on politics and culture. We're an online magazine. We don't play nice and we don't kiss butt. In the words of Tuesday Weld: "I do not ever want to be a huge star. Do you think I want a success? I refused "Bonnie and Clyde" because I was nursing at the time but also because deep down I knew that it was going to be a huge success. The same was true of "Bob and Carol and Fred and Sue" or whatever it was called. It reeked of success."

And here we are again (Jess)
I dropped out for just this reason.
A Sunday review needs to post . . . on Sunday.
It's Tuesday.
And things aren't done.
Worse, Ava and C.I. wrote a fine TV piece -- brief, but praising Geena Davis' acting on THE EXORCIST.
They wrote it Sunday.
This morning, Jim informs them we need "bigger."
They need to rewrite it because we need "bigger."
The fourth time he said the word, Ava and C.I. responded, "You're not Jan de Bont and we're not poor Keanu so stop screaming that at us."
And then Ava and C.I. laughed hilariously -- so that's some insider thing I don't know about but maybe you do and you'll enjoy it. (I assume it's a tale from the filming of SPEED.)
This should have been an easier edition.
It wasn't.
Jim's tossing things that were completed saying they aren't worth posting.
I'm bringing this up because when I bailed earlier, a number of you e-mailed saying you wished you'd known there were problems.
There are problems.
Don't say you weren't tipp
