A great headline…

by William Brafford

A.O. Scott’s review of X-Men Origins: Wolverine is headlined, “I, Mutant, Red in Face and Claw,” which I think is wonderful. It gets me wondering, though: do movie review headline writers have some kind of forum where they make sure they don’t accidently double up on puns? Because it sure would have been embarassing if someone else went for the Tennyson joke on the same day. Runner-up: the Toronto Star’s non-pun headline “Wolverine: A Hairy, Canuck Obama?”
