The Latest European Commission Controversy—Judge for Yourself



Apparently, some Americans, Brits, and now the Brussels press corps, are complaining that this promotional film clip for European cinema—funded by the EU—is "raunchy" and was an inappropriate use of EU taxpayers' money. (Each clip cost around 350 EUR.)

Here is a snippet:

Some reporters also took a swipe at the title of the sequence, asking whether "Let's Come Together" was acceptable innuendo -- and if it was, whether the pun worked in the 27-member Union's other official languages.

A Commission spokesman insisted it had not received a single complaint in the 14 weeks since the clip first appeared on Internet site YouTube, suggesting the Brussels press corps should relax and get with the times.

"Let us for once also have a good sense of humor and let us not start the old wars of the fifties about what is sex, what is pornography and what is simply normal to watch on television," spokesman Martin Selmayr appealed Wednesday.


Well, I think the video clip is well-edited, and uh, rather "hot". Also, it's fun to try to name the various films from which the snippets were taken.

Long live European cinema!
