Harold Pinter passes: the death of a great artist who hated us

I have a hard time with Leni’s case. She was a very talented artist, she worked for some of the worst scum on the planet. Plenty of other artists with real talent worked for evil scum (Eisenstein worked for Stalin, to name just one example of some great Russian artists who worked for Stalin). How is Ms. Reifenstahl different from Sergei or Shostakovich?

As to Mr. Pinter, inferior to Stoppard (and also Michael Frayn) but yes, a good playwright.
