People like to pretend that everything is simple. That every problem has a straight forward, easy solution. That the
paradox of tolerance is not real, because you could simply look at it a bit differently and it magically disappears, or something. People claim a soothing claim that all you need to do to make the paradox go away is to think of it as a "social contract".
If you are not willing to tolerate, you are not tolerated. But I happened to live in Israel...

While
Brian De Palma was making
Carrie ( as a part of his
Alfred Hitchcock imitation films ),
Alfred Hitchcock himself was making his last picture
Family Plot, where he used the composer from
Steven Spielberg's
Jaws John Williams for the score. De Palma, probably knowing Williams through Spielberg, decided to mess around with Hitchcock himself, making a sort of yet another
Carrie ( a film about people with superpowers ) but this time hiring John Williams himself for the score. And weirdly enough ( while Spielberg was finishing
Close Encounters and starting
1941 where his camera sexually obsessed over De Palma's GF at the time
Nancy Allen ) De Palma hires Spielberg's girlfriend at the time
Amy Irving for the lead role.
