As the Zimmerman kerfuffle devolves into the Bonfire of the Vanities (with Obama playing the Bruce Willis role) to distract folks from the high price of petrol, I have switched to watching dysfunctional families via YOUTUBE.
If you think things are bad now, you just have to look at how it used to be in the "good old days".
The Cleopatras is about the dysfuncional Ptolymeic dynasty of Europe
and then there is the Borgias, Tony Soprano in medieval garb
a different view of the social anarchy is this story of Rita of Cascia, which for a "religious" movie isn't bad.
My point is that if you only look for the horrible things, you'll find them, but hidden in history are small shoots of goodness that sping up in the most unlikely places.
