Bart:
	In "It's a Gift" (his best movie, according to some), he adds a third 
dimension to his character; in spite of everything, he loves his family, 
including his children. That is, at a comfortable distance. Even if it's 
kumquats instead of crystallized pineapple (from a classic scene from 
the movie).
