Thumbs-down verdict

GOLDSTEIN’S attempt to rehabilitate Victor Salva’s reputation exposes Hollywood’s well-earned reputation for having no moral base [“Victor Salva’s Horror Stories,” June 11].

Gallons of Goldstein’s crocodile tears mixed with Francis Ford Coppola’s moral relativism will not wash away the stain of Salva’s crime.

Not even on celluloid.
