Interested in a lot of things including but not limited to movies, TV, music, pop culture, current events, history, psychology, philosophy, photography, art, literature, baseball, and politics.
Did you know that the little boy from that movie died in September? I believe he was the last living cast member.

I believe that Herbert Halbik was the last surviving cast member of #TheThirdMan. He passed away just a few weeks ago.

At first, I didn't understand why you said Buchanan deserved a massive asterisk but then I read about what he did & yes, I agree that he deserves a massive asterisk.

No. It's unrealistic that the US will turn Hegseth & others over to the ICC. And it doesn't matter who the president is. Both Democratic & Republican presidents in the past did not support the US joining the ICC. I highly doubt that the next Democratic president will be in favor of joining the ICC.

The US is not an ICC member. The ICC began its operation in 2002 but no US president (including Obama & Biden) has ever supported the US joining the ICC.

Some people find The Passion of Joan of Arc boring. I am not one of those people.

According to this article, she's a psychology major.

According to OU, this student, whose name is Samantha Fulnecky, "earned Scholar-Athlete status for maintaining a grade point average of at least 3.5 on a 4.0 scale for the 2023-24 academic year."

Iraq. They are from Iraq.

Wrong country. They are from Iraq, not Iran.

But why would he go to an ICC country if the ICC charges him? He will either stay in the US or go to a non-ICC country.
November 30, 2025 at 4:41 PM
I highly doubt that even if a Democrat wins in 2028, the US will join the ICC. Both Obama and Biden, when they were presidents, could have joined the ICC but they decided not to. Even if the next Dem. president wants to join the ICC, he/she has to get 2/3 of the Senate to agree.

Yes. It's all about me me me with MAGA.

I would also add that TBOAN has White Christian Nationalist overtones as evidenced by this shot of Jesus Christ as an otherworldly figure.

What about Fredric March?
November 30, 2025 at 1:06 PM
On Facebook, there used to be a lot of people who consider themselves cinephiles who conceded that TBOAN is a racist movie but then praised it by pointing out how technically brilliant and innovative the movie was. I've seen TBOAN in its entirety only once & that was enough for me.

AFAIK, most white people didn't protest. Some white liberals protested back then but most protesters were black.
