Obsession

Crime writer James Ellroy and Zodiac director David Fincher have formed a mutual admiration society while sharing insights about obsession. And make no mistake about it: Obsession, not slaughter, is what Zodiac is all about. In Ellroy's view, "This movie is a whole metaphor for men and how we all go assertively into the world and how we countermand our own personal chaos by trying to impose order on external events."

OK, two posts about the hotness that is Helen Mirren, follwed by a post about porn, followed by a post about obsession.
Uh, huh. I think we all know where YOUR mind is at, Joe!
