#3  Might work, Milton. After all, most people in Baghdad probably are "alienated from mainstream France."

If "alienated" means "don't give a rat's behind."

Did anyone ask if John tried to convert the rioters (pre- or post-riot) to scientology?

#2  Perhaps they should instead film in, say, Baghdad?

#1  All those involved hoped the £30 million movie would draw attention to urban communities alienated from mainstream France.

As Hollywood says: You can't buy that kind of publicity.
