It is ridiculous to set a detective story in New York City. New York City is itself a detective story...

"Anne of a Thousand Days" was a big fat hit, back in the day... and it was up for 10 Oscars.
Genevieve Bujold is wonderful in it.

Because...
We love to see people who presumably have everything get it taken away from them in such a final and ultimate act of judgment.

To be honest, this is always what comes to mind when I think about Mary, Queen of Scots...
"Are you Mary, Queen of Scots?"
Stop looking at my charisma.

"[Gore] was widely perceived as arrogant. If you know something, you're not smart. You're a smarty-pants. It's annoying. People get annoyed with your knowledge. It goes back to high school, to not doing your homework ... 'There's something I should know, I don't know why I should know it but someone knows it and I don't. So I'm going to have to make fun of him now.'"
-Sarah Vowell, The Partly-Cloudy Patriot
