Vegas and the “Big Three” Bailout

Maybe it’s the fact that I’m in Vegas right now for the International Film Festival Summit, or maybe it’s the fact that Christmas is around the corner, but I can’t help but be reminded of this classic scene from Albert Brooks’ Lost In America as I hear the Detroit Automakers back in Washington (essentially) asking “for their money back”:

“The Desert Inn has heart”

“I know I’ve started to think/About leaving tonight/Although Nothing seems right/In cars”
