    A wealthy man suffers from impotence whenever he tries to make love to his wife.

    Rating Dogs on a Scale of 1-10
    2012-01-01
    Truth as held to be self-evident, however inconsequential or ludicrously subjective. Truth as not a matter of opinion. A meaningless game of arbitrary pronouncements that hopes to suggest other contexts in which similar games are far more insidious, while still giving viewers a good time. Ultimately though, a film that is probably too delightful to be anything but cute.
