Chris,

You're sooooo right. There are things that are just too private for anyone to know. That is why the writer must use some real discretion. This, by-the-way, was at the heart of the film Chaplin. Which you must see. Downy was up for the Best Actor Oscar for it and lost to Al Pacino, I feel it was totally political and awarded to Pacino because he hadn't won an Oscar yet, and Downy has never fully recovered from the loss. It was, by my lights, one of most incredible performances in film history.
