4.0 out of 5 stars Boorish Pinter and amiable Albom, December 22, 2007

By	Shalom Freedman "Shalom Freedman" (Jerusalem,Israel) - See all my reviews (TOP 50 REVIEWER)

Charlie Rose was his usual considerate , attentive self in interviewing Harold Pinter. He showed knowledge of the work of Pinter and educed from him the story of how he began to write plays. He learned about Pinter's feelings towards his plays, and about the movie- versions of them. All. was fine until they entered the realm of politics. Here it became choppy as Pinter revealed himself to be more than just a mild disaproving of America leftist- but a real hard- core, uncompromising anti- American jerk.
Rose to his credit did not simply nod at Pinter's outrageous remarks. He did however do what he always does end up with an amiable fairwell, including a bit more praise for Pinter. I understand that this is Rose's signature and style- but for the kind of outrageous junk that Pinter said I believe Rose should have been happy to sign off in a less friendly way.
Albom is another story. Both Rose and Albom are reporters who know the journalistic business well. They spoke about Albom's teacher Morrie Schwarts about whom 'Teusdays with Morrie' was written. A pleasant segment with a person who wrote one small book that has entered the realm of the 'classic'.
