If you want a weird but true fact to talk about:
Dexter Holland, lead singer of The Offspring, was instrumental in this. His doctorial thesis in molecular biology was sequencing mRNA in HIV. The paper was also heavily cited in creating the COVID-19 vaccine.

It feels like we should be making a bigger deal of “we actually did in fact find a cure for AIDS”
Evidence is growing that some HIV-infected infants, if given antiretroviral drugs early in life, are able to suppress their viral loads to undetectable levels and then come off the medicine. www.wired.com/story/the-fi...

We've also announced CHESS OF THE WIND and I can't express how absolutely excited I am to be presenting this film as part of the festival. It is unmissable.
Finally, we will be presenting a screening of Mohammad Reza Aslani’s 1976 CHESS OF THE WIND. Greed, deception and violence are at the heart of this gorgeous Gothic Iranian masterpiece once banned in Iran and presumed lost for many years.

I don't know where those 5-star reviews of Ripley are coming from because episode 1 is awful and absolutely maddening. I don't think I'm even going to bother with the rest. I've seen enough.
