7th grade English teacher. Horror movie freak. And I have a podcast Called Red Rose Film Club where we talk about leftist politics and movies. www.redrosefilm.com
Instant fave for me! It's got all the things I love! Political intrigue, an insanely good Jack Lemmon performance, and indictments against American foreign policy!
🚨🚨NEW EP🚨🚨

We watched Costa-Gavras' MISSING, the true story of Charles Horman, an American in Chile who was disappeared in the days after Pinochet's 1973 coup (with covert help from the good ol' USA).

FRIENDSHIP and EDDINGTON are a perfect double-feature: two movies about ABSOLUTE losers willing to torpedo their entire lives to feel even a modicum of significance in an increasingly isolating and lonely world.

ME: Watch this AEW match with me. (Mox v Hangman at All-In)

MY WIFE: I don’t like the really bloody matches.

ME: it won’t be THAT bad (a white lie, but I thought by the time it got bloody, she’d be into it).

Literally 2 minutes into the match….

Not enough words to describe what an ABSOLUTE BANGER this movie is.
New ep soon!

MISSING (dir. Costa-Gavras) is the true story of Charles Horman, an American living in Chile during the 1973 coup. Horman was disappeared and murdered for uncovering the US' support of fascist authoritarian Augusto Pinochet and his military junta.

ECHO VALLEY is one of the most unpleasant movies I've seen in a while. Not graphic or anything, just a lot of unpleasant characters doing unpleasant things to unpleasant results, with not a whole lot to say.

A lot of hack comedians use comedy as a an excuse to be terribly racist.

Tony Hinchcliffe can’t even do that right; he’s the kind of hack who uses racism as an excuse to do terrible comedy.

Man……. BEETLEJUICE BEETLEJUICE is a soulless mess with none of the energy or whimsy of the original. Feels like when some half-past dead rock-star tries to tour again…he’s singing the song, but it sounds like shit and there’s a 50% chance he might die on stage.
