Entertainment Weekly, Issue #12, page 8 starring Joshua Jackson, Paul Walker, and Leslie Bibb (snips) "such experience may come in handy if "The Skulls" raises any ire from its real-life Yale counterpart, Skull and Bones-a secret society that, like others in the Ivy League, graduates members to top power positions in business and government (presidential candidate Bush and his father are reportedly alums). Although (John) Pogue (screenwriter) says he intentionally kept the university in his screenplay generic, he drew on his own time at Yale. "I had both a repulsion and a perverse curiosity as to what actually goes one," says Pogue, who joined a secret society himself- although he won't say which one. "It's a little hypocritical on my part," he admits. In the end, Pogue expects to hear few grumbles from any real secret society-he feels he actually polished their image. "I believe there are things that have gone down in real life a lot worse than anything in this movie," he says ominously. An impressive boast, considering the movie features sexual favors, dueling, and death - all, of course, in the name of a good time. - - - - End of quote from Entertainment Weekly- - - - - KK's comments: I found parts of the movie triggering, only because I know that what was taking place could have really taken place. More to the point, the high tech utilized to watch Skull members at all times seemed dated, as TIs would know that the technology available is much more intrusive - this aspect was hinted at, but not shown. Possibly because Pogue has no idea what technology was utilized to "watch" Skull members.
