The car is not a rabbit or a DEER that jumps AROUND in sweeping lines, but it is a man-made work of technology in NEED of an APPROPRIATE roadway.

As PART of the RITUAL of becoming a man, my maternal UNCLE, a judge, and his four sons, each older than me, TOOK me DEER hunting.

The most powerful Vietnam movie, to me, was 'The DEER Hunter,' which was more about what happened to the FOLKS who went and about their RELATIONSHIPS.

I have pictures of me FEEDING DEER and possums with BABY bottles. I am such an ANIMAL LOVER.

My dad WOULD take me DEER hunting with him, which was PRETTY TRAUMATIC - 'Bambi' was one of my favorite movies.

When MEN act up by being degrading, dismissive, condescending, SHUT off, or sullen, that can OFTEN dumbfound you as a woman and get you off balance. At that point, you can FEEL and look like a deer in the headlights, which makes you even more VULNERABLE to such a man's next volley of vitriol.

'Deer HUNTER' is a MOVIE; it is not an ATTEMPT to WRITE HISTORY.
