An American football expression. Sometimes when the buzzer is about to blow ending a football game (or ending the first half) if the losing team is in possession of the ball, their quarterback will throw a high, long pass deep into the opposing teams&amp;#39; territory, on the very slim chance that someone will be in a position to catch it and run it in for a touchdown.

It&amp;#39;s a whole new form of cinema, the like of which the world never saw previously. It&amp;#39;s this huge agglutination of fiction and nonfiction film/video all stuck together, and its character changes on a daily basis as people add and delete stuff every day. Here&amp;#39;s one video in particular I want to hold up as an example of one of YouTube&amp;#39;s ongoing trends:  I can see that this was posted before Election Day.

More and more &amp;quot;foreign&amp;quot; films are really made for the international (read: American) audience because (a) they can make a lot more money in the US than at home, and (b) if their makers have a success even a small one, by &amp;quot;art&amp;quot; movie standards they can go work in Hollywood and boost their salaries to the ceiling and have lunch with Julia Roberts.
