Will note: this is probably the direct result of workshy Bari Weiss waiting until Friday before a Sunday air date to spike the story. International rebroadcasters probably get the recordings early to vet locally and run through local standards and practices. She forgot and no one told her :)
Oh yeah Global TV (in Canada or by VPN) has the full uncut 60 Minutes story on its 60 Minutes rebroadcast. CBS must have sent them the original tape.

Step 1: Watch this hilarious video

Step 2: Buy Despelote

Step 3: Play Despelote

Step 4: Transcend from "Slug Dusted with Salt" to "Enriched Human" through the power of autobiographical storytelling

Step 5: Gradually descend back into the default state of "Goo Ball"

Four very good reviews here that all have totally different reads, but all feel like they’re in conversation with one another. Extremely healthy and GOOD.

some good nuanced writing from Sam here
I wrote about why cutting Kill Bill in half might have cost Uma Thurman an Oscar, and how the new 4 1/2-hour version makes whole the greatest performance of her career.
Kill Bill Is Back in Theaters in a New Version. It’ll Never Play the Same.
The Whole Bloody Affair changed the way I saw Tarantino’s epic revenge film—and so did the reporting about its making.
