A great LA Times article on the Iron Giant, talking about the abysmal attempts at publicity and the odd lack of recognition of good films by those who've been hollering about the bad ones:
The Wall Street Journal even ran an article urging readers to ignore the box-office figures and judge the film on its merits. But John McCain hasn't hailed it as a counter to the "coarsening of American culture" he's deplored; Steve Allen hasn't taken out full-page newspaper ads urging parents to see it. Charlton Heston hasn't even condemned it.
