Eats Shoots and Leaves The Zero Tolerance Approach to Punctuation A panda walked into a cafe. He ordered a sandwich ate it then pulled out a gun and shot the waiter. 'Why?' groaned the injured man. The panda shrugged tossed him a badly punctuated wildlife manual and walked out. And sure enough when the waiter consulted the book he found an explanation. 'Panda' ran the entry for his assailant. 'Large black and white mammal native to China. Eats shoots and leaves.' We see signs in shops every day for "Banana's" and even "Gateaux's". Competition rules remind us: "The judges decision is final." Now many punctuation guides already exist explaining the principles of the apostrophe; the comma; the semi-colon. These books do their job but somehow punctuation abuse does not diminish. Why? Because people who can't punctuate don't read those books! Of course they don't! They laugh at books like those! Eats Shoots and Leaves adopts a more militant approach and attempts to recruit an army of punctuation vigilantes: send letters back with the punctuation corrected. Do not accept sloppy emails. Climb ladders at dead of night with a pot of paint to remove the redundant apostrophe in "Video's sold here". ... Maybe Baby - (DVD) Ben Elton's directorial debut based on his novel Inconceivable. A writer (Hugh Laurie) and his wife (Joely Richardson) are trying - but repeatedly failing - to have a baby. As they try increasingly outlandish ways to conceive the writer tries to get his career on track with the aid of his wife's diary... Ben Elton is a very busy chap. Responsible for the likes of Blackadder The Young Ones and a string of (oddly ecologically minded) comic novels. He's written plays performed endless stand up routines and now finally got round to directing his first film (which he also wrote. Of course. Based on his own novel. Of course. Semi-autobiographical. Of Course.) Hugh Laurie stars as Sam Bell a television writer for a painfully unfunny looking television show. Juggling the needs of the BBC's new management with the more carnal needs of his wife Lucy with whom he is sincerely trying to go forth and multiply. Unfortunately he seems to be blocked in both cases. Writer's block for the beeb and something more serious for his wife given that neither seems able to conceive no matter how hard they try (and you do have to give them brownie points for trying). The film darkens as it progresses with Sam resorting to plundering his wife's diary for screenplay inspiration and Lucy getting understandably upset before letting herself fall for handsome actor Carl (James Purefoy). There's also a strong supporting cast including Adrian Lester Joanna Lumley and Rowan Attkinson along with blink-and-you'll-miss-them appearances from Emma Thompson and Dawn French. Tom Hollander is quite amusing as a pretentious film director although his Scottish accent is so bad it is likely to make your ears bleed. However the film's problems lie more in Elton's script which tends to recycle gags from his stage act or TV series - most of which are a lot funnier with Elton's own intonation. Also once Sam has done his dirty deed (diary reading that is) it's hard not to side with the Lucy character lending something of an imbalance to the proceedings. However problems aside Maybe Baby has considerate charm and Laurie and Richardson make an engaging couple. DVD Version ...
