Contact (1997): This was probably the first movie I saw that had a more hopeful idea about life elsewhere in the galaxy than it did about large swaths of humanity, I loved it for it.

The Red Shoes (1948): Undoubtably meticulously written/directed and beautifully acted. The final act felt a bit impenetrable to me, but the central ballet number had this movie touching god.

Dawn of the Planet of the Apes (2014):
What a turn around from the first movie! Didn't expect this to be about revolutionary thinking, and getting at ideas of permanent revolution & revolutionary structures leading to totalitarianism. Also, apes fighting while swinging from chains! boxd.it/bCxbPZ

"Secret police" is often misunderstood to mean a force that operates covertly, with all their operations secret.
But a secret police force's actions are often public. The secret part is hiding their identities, because they're breaking laws to hurt politically disfavored people, and fear reprisals.

Taking a moment away from movie micro reviews to say that I will never forget that people voted to have a gestapo because they don’t understand that the president doesn’t control grocery prices. Fuck all y’all.

If you want a good explanation of why the American system of government worked well enough for 200 years and then suddenly stopped, it's because Republicans in Congress suddenly started letting their partisan interests COMPLETELY override their institutional interests

a lot of problems wouldn't exist if we had a congress with even an ounce of self interest
Honestly insane they didn't brief the gang of eight until it was underway

Just watched the new Knives Out and I think it's really important you know that the scene in the Seminary's Gym is filmed in the same place Rick Astley filmed the music video for Never Gonna Give You Up.
I saw the window tracery and immediately made my friends pause the film so I could tell them.
