The Chair Company does what I most want to do in my (admittedly all-too-infrequent) writing, which is to pull you in with absorbing plots and fascinating characters, which exist only as a glue trap to hold you in place while the dumbest jokes ever thought up are held right to your face

60 years before Pope Francis showed that making Catholicism a bit more St. Francis-like could still get the reactionaries to call you antichrist, Rossellini followed up his St. Francis biopic with Europe '51, a tale of how living a St. Francis-like life in 1950s Italy will get you committed.

Lots of people sharing this clip because it's funny and cathartic but I also genuinely believe it's important.
We have to win the narrative battle between "I live in a corrupt society and that's just how it is" and "I live in a corrupt society and we are going to defeat and humiliate these ghouls."

If you're looking for an Udo Kier film to watch, may I recommend BACURAU (2019), starts off like a worthy slice of sociopolitical realism and ends up as demented Brazilian neo-western exploitation. Don't read anything else, just see it. Contains one of my favourite film moments of the 21st century.

I once knew a Federal bank examiner, and one time someone asked him why we had to KEEP inspecting banks over and over. He basically said every new batch of business school grads invents bank fraud from first principles.

The underlying cause of every bubble - debt masquerading as financial innovation - depends on not just short financial memory & speculative neophytism, but reinventing jargon of finance, like how each generation of kids has new ways to say same things.

I love a film with religious themes, but this is by far the most cynical I have ever been about the religiosity of a movie. Fortunately next week's film swings to the polar opposite.
We kick off 3 Films by Roberto Rossellini Starring Ingrid Bergman with Stromboli (1950) a film that was incredible controversial in its time not for its content but for its director and star's personal lives.
