Oliver Is Stoned


From the January 6, 2005 Guardian newspaper:
At the UK premiere of his epic film of Alexander, Oliver Stone last night blamed "raging fundamentalism in morality" for the film's US box office failure.

Ollie, we don't always strike gold with our artistic efforts. What creative talent doesn't know that. Who hasn't had their 'light-unto-this-world' pet project garner an unbelievable thumbs-down from 'cretinous' critics. But in this particular case, it's both the critics and the paying public.

Let this particular conspiracy theory go. You're smarter than this. The hurt will heal. Learn from it and move on.
