John Roberts, movie buff.

From an article in today's New York Times:

Senator Charles E. Schumer, Democrat of New York, said that Judge Roberts' refusal to answer many questions had rendered the hearings absurd. Mr. Schumer suggested that Judge Roberts would not even name his favorite movies.

Judge Roberts named two: "Doctor Zhivago" and "North by Northwest."

Now, I may not be too keen on the president who nominated Roberts to the Supreme Court, and it's too soon to know what I'll think of Roberts' performance as Chief Justice, but I must commend the nominee for his fine taste in cinema. AMDG.
