yeah - and Steve Merchant’s height played into the oppressing “BAD MAN” character perfectly. That was great casting.

There were so many scenes shot from the perspective of a kid too, it was an elegant touch to the story -- literally seeing the world from his perspective

yeah - I think there’s a lot more stories to tell about that time in World History. and those will probably become movies, and those movies might get academy picture nominations or even win. People forget how long the war was, too. So, there’s lots of socio-economic, propaganda, acts of resistance, etc to explore. But…

I kind of wonder if the hot take was based on the fact that Hollywood keeps telling stories about WW2 and Nazis blind hatred for anything not Aryan???

When we left the theater we talked about all the Nazi movies that have gotten a best picture nod. It’s not a small list. 

not gonna lie: based on the initial trailer, I got some real cringe out of it...
a superhero Hitler was not something I was down for, but then i watched an extended trailer when they exposed his mom was somehow involved in the German resistance... and I thought “hmm, this might have more layers”

my favorite moment was…

my takeaway was definitely different.

I think you are being to forgiving to this twat waffle.

So, before I get all up in my “I can’t believe this” soapbox, let me start with I absolutely believe that sex can be healing and think that criminals having sanctioned sex would lessen violence in prison systems. However, that is not what we’re saying here! This criminal (according to how i read the article) said he…

Floria and grocery stories? 

it appears that all options are sold out?

I like that Ryan made the connection between war and the situation young people are facing. It will, unfortunately and probably, take a long time to heal... I say this looking at how veterans of foreign wars were treated state side and how no mental care is offered to the youth of war torn countries.

The first thing…

Hiya, just a lady here, but in horrible stories of the ER.

So, the argument for keeping Netflix gets stronger every year. 3 in the best picture category

I read it during one of my “I don’t have bipolar, these people don’t know what they’re talking about. lots of people don’t sleep for 72 hours and have the best ideas and crash because they’re just tired!” phases. admittedly, it was after I watched the movie and wanted to know more about the person behind the book -…

She will be missed, she was such an out and proud voice for mental illness. Refusing to be defined by her diagnosis. And I think that carried through to her cancer. 

i mean... HE CONFESSED!!!

I would say that some of the nude scenes were well thought out and shot beautifully and fit inside the context of an affair especially at the beginning. with the passion and the “this is wrong, but i can’t help myself” skew of the story. the first few episodes paint Ruth’s character as a seductress, but later the…

I’m really getting the impression he would return to the show if they would eat a little crow

I am surprised at how astute Christianity Today was about this, good for them for not having double standards

this feels like deflection served a la “whataboutism”
