The Zanucks’ ‘Rush’

Does The Times have anything to say about the character of a filmmaker who prefers to ignore the honorable officers who face grave dangers in the drug wars in favor of the real-life dishonored rogue officer Kim Wozencraft? Oh yes, Wozencraft was punished--18 months in prison before the million-dollar purchase of film rights to her book.

Was the article an undisguised press release in behalf of the Zanuck Co.? Or was The Times practicing “toady journalism” in expectation of generous ad revenues from the same company?
