As an American citizen, I am embarrased that something as as inane as Gump
has made Hollywood history as best picture of 1994. Fortunately nothing
is static in this world, and as an optimist I'll resign myself to looking
for a change in the output from Hollywood for the future.
 
Perhaps we will look back at this time, with Newt and Contract with America
plus attacks on freedom of expression on the Net, and think, Yes, Gump
and only Gump could have been named best picture as a symbol of the mid-
ninties conservative swing.
