Any man who puts his hand on a woman, especially in front of his children is a piece of shit. Farrah Fawcett showed the horror of being a mother who regularly gets beaten by her husband, with no one to turn to for help, in "The Burning Bed" . Today there are resources for women who are being abused - hotlines, shelters, support groups, the police. The National Domestic Violence Hotline is 1-800-799-SAFE (7233) or 1-800-787-3224 (TTY) –This is a crisis intervention and referral phone line for domestic violence. The Burning Bed is a non-fiction book by Faith McNulty about battered Dansville , Michigan housewife , Francine Hughes . After thirteen years of domestic abuse at the hands of her husband James Berlin ("Mickey") Hughes, she set fire to the bed he was sleeping in on March 9 , 1977 . James Hughes was killed and the house destroyed in the resulting inferno. On the night of the fire, Hughes told her children to put their coats on and wait for her in the car.

Last night I saw La sirène du Mississippi ( 1969 ) at BAM with a friend who is much more knowledgeable about French cinema than I. Another friend had recently recommended François Truffaut 's Jules and Jim ....and since then it is always on my mind. Mississippi Mermaid left me reeling. It had elements of Mulholland Drive (beautiful blonde woman who changes name/character, yet remains the same multi-faceted woman), and the lyrics of Tina Turner ("Whats Love Got To Do With It?" + "Private Dancer"). That sounds messy, and it is. But it has searing flashes of brilliance that burned me with its emotional stabs. Jules and Jim was all about kindness, fragility, sexual exploration, and honesty. Mississippi Mermaid is all about cruelty, coarseness, sexual exploitation, and deception. Both movies tell a fascinating story about human nature.
