A vital question of grammatical proportions.
What is the singular form of the rotund candy/mints know as 'Mentos'. Is it 'mento' or 'mentos'? Is it 'mentos' in the singular AND plural form, like 'deer'.
"Would you like A mento?"
"Would you like A mentos?"
I am terribly vexed and your help (or various theories, whatever you want to offer) would be greatly appreciated.
I've read countless articles where the stars/filmmakers of Cinderella Man declare that it is not a boxing movie. They claim it is a humane story about a man who just happens to be a boxer. Oddly enough, the only scenes that have vitality and evoke any semblence of pathos are the scenes filled with pugilism. The film, which is actually quite perfunctory, lacks the fervor one might expect it to have. Howard is unable to portray ambiguous characters, and Max Baer comes off as a one-dimensional, obnoxious, and arrogant douchebag. Out of the cast, Crowe is the only one who is able to attain emotional gravitas. 5/10
