 Blame It On Rio
During the heat of the 1992 political campaign, an ambitious Senator from Tennessee traveled to the World Environment Summit in Rio de Janeiro, demanding to know "Where's George?!" There the world had gathered to moralize against the usual suspects, such as too many (other) people using too many resources.
At this conference, numerous feel-good but dangerous agreements emerged, including "Agenda 21", which, despite some humanist rhetoric, was about as anti-people as we're likely to see in the light of day.
There is no reason not to believe that, as Rio was to Kyoto, Bush's "voluntary" proposal will be to actual energy rationing.

 DVD Verdict Review - Blame It On Rio
A sloppy reworking of the 1977 French film Un Moment d'Egarement (One Wild Moment), Blame it on Rio is yet another of those so-called comedies from the 1980s that are more memorable for their bountiful bits of nudity than for any semblance of cohesive plot or actual humor.

 Blame It On Rio: Jose Padilha's "Bus 174"
A perfectly nice bus in many respects, #174 was possessed of one significant flaw -- on that July morning it was hijacked by a distraught, confused, and possibly high young man, sparking a protracted police standoff with tragic consequences.
Untethered from society, we are told that street kids "lose contact with their past." As if to remedy this lack of history, the film examines the short, unhappy life of Sandro the hijacker, and with thorough research it uncovers a story that could not have been more tragic if it were scripted.
The tone is set in the film's opening minutes; as an aerial camera glides over the pristine blue waters and lush green parks of Rio's shoreline, a series of voiceovers by drug addicts and street people, intoning the brutal experiences of their lives, belie the beauty on-screen.
