This was a frivolous lawsuit given what was actually shown. The Nirvana baby I have serious sympathy for, though.

Frivolous, methinks, too: a nakedly transparent grab for what Romeo himself declares to be "...worse poison to men's souls, doing more murders in this loathsome world..." (than drugs, like the one Romeo buys from the impoverished apothecary - a speech that movies omit and school teachers run from) And the judge might do well to quote the Bard himself: "Good Lord, what madness rules in brainsick men, when for so slight and frivolous a cause, such factious emulations shall arise!"

They were always well-spoken and mature, even at their young ages, in their interviews after they shot to stardom from that movie. Then all of a sudden they came out w/ this frivolous lawsuit a couple of years ago, which really surprised me because it countered everything they had said the previous fifty some years.
