Of their own doing

I would imagine there is an audience for Nicole Holofcener’s work -- there are many Nicoles who make films for the elite left and people who want to be like them [“Right on the Money,” March 26].

I hold no leaning to the right wingers or the liberal lefties. I am an observer of hypocrisy on both sides, and I am sickened by all of it.

I am a steelworker who became a special inspector after years in the trade. I have worked at many private homes of people who are like Nicole’s friends, and when I go home at night I count my blessings for leading a simple life

There is a market for her film. It’s up there in them hills behind locked gates with $100,000 security systems. People build their own prisons.
