		Friedan: I thought it was absolutely outrageous that the Silence of the Lambs won four Oscars. ... I'm not saying that the movie shouldn't have been shows. I'm not denying the movie was an artistic triumph, but it was about the evisceration, the skinning alive of women. That is what I find offensive. Not the Playboy centerfold.
