Ian McEwan talks to Clive James

I know you're all puzzling over this scary Benazir Bhutto situation, but I found a clip (thanks, Slate) of Clive James and Ian McEwan talking about writing for the movies, an experience that's soured McEwan a bit. Still as James observes, his candor is refreshing. Curiously, "Atonement" doesn't come up. It'd be interesting to hear what McEwan makes of the abject tastefulness inflicted upon his book.
