		<description><![CDATA[I do hope Katheryn Bigelow wins Oscars for her outstanding film The Hurt Locker. It was perhaps the best film I saw last year.
It is heartening to see also that this talented film maker is no feminist either &#8211; she has no time for conspiracies that women are being kept out of film making, and [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[If nothing else, Fox Television&#8217;s 24 is an excellent example of ethical dilemmas and of Utilitarianism in action. It shows both Rule and Act Utilitarianism.
The character Jack Bauer is at most times an uncompromising Act Utilitarian. He cares nothing  for deontology and assesses each of his acts according to the greatest well-being for the greatest [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[This moving and well-known scene from Jerry Maguire is one my favourites in all cinema.
I love irony of the location &#8211; a feminists&#8217; meeting &#8211; and it&#8217;s great to see pure sincerity and old-fashioned romance between a man and a woman trumping that mindset.

		<description><![CDATA[Is it only me, or is it obvious to everyone how Stephen Jones, gifted melody maker and quirky lyricist of Babybird fame, and Kiefer Sutherland, good actor but repeated drunk driver of 24 fame (and several good films including Flatliners beforehand) are virtually identical?
Disregarding Sutherland&#8217;s exploits off-screen and considering his no-nonsense persona Jack Bauer instead, [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The following is the ending of the BBC Bafta award winning drama North &#38; South, based on the novel by Elizabeth Gaskell. It&#8217;s a &#8220;spoiler&#8221; in that it shows you how the story ends. It&#8217;s an &#8220;improver&#8221; in that it will remind you of a time when women were ladies and men were gentlemen, and [...]]]></description>
