I don't think I'm doing that at all. The poster made a point about how many films were incorporated into the film noir books and how many would have to be cut if such-and-such was applied. And I gave an example of
"The Blue Dahlia" because I just re-saw the film -- after many years -- just the other day.

How is that talking down to people? I'm serious in not understanding you.
