    What about marrying, a real Armenian lady?
    It did it for me!

    First, it is ridiculed;
    Second, it is violently opposed; and
    Third, it is accepted as self-evident."

      When did you marry this lady Gavur jan?

      You know when you marry a lovely Armenian lady, you keep the culture not only in your home closeby and all around you; but also in your heart! Double the pleasure and double the fun!

It's sad, but true
        I got bad news for you partner.
        Fact: regardless of how disconnected one may get from his/her roots, once you find out what is really going on and that ancient freaking Armenian blood kicks in, no matter what the effect of Diaspora..............the higher your character, the higher the pull. There is no escape. hahaha

          I tried reading some of this and I had to stop for two reasons: 1) I have already read about Atom Egoyan through many other sources and 2) the grammar is unusually poor. It's hard to believe this was actually published.

            1) It's an online publication so there isn't much effort gone into the editing as an actual publication.

            2) It's written from the Turkish perspective, so it I found it interesting that this much effort went into the publication in the first place.

            3) English isn't everyone's first language.

            4) The author (Sedat Laciner) is a Turkish academic specialist on the Middle East and International Relations, with particular reference to Turkish foreign policy. Dr; (born 1972).

            5) The link to the article was down at the time, looks like it's back up again http://www.turkishweekly.net/article...is-cinema.html
