The end of the world has arrived, and Radu Jude knows how to portray it

Before entering the cinema, I knew little more about this film than its bizarre poster, which looked like something out of an ancient version of Adobe Photoshop, and the fact that it had been screened at the 2023 Mar del Plata Film Festival. It was also my first time watching a Romanian film, a country about which I realize I know less than I'd like to admit. I could never have anticipated what followed after the lights went down.

The Monkey Theory: How The White Lotus Explores Our Primal Nature

But beneath the opulent luxury of yet another White Lotus resort, there is something deeper at play—a return to the primal. This season, the series doesn't just expose human hypocrisy and power struggles; it drags us into the jungle of the mind, where the "Monkey Theory" takes center stage. Hear me out!….

'El infierno': Once upon a time in Narcángel

I saw a news report a few days back that the mayor of Chilpancingo, Mexico, was assassinated on October 6, 2024, just six days after taking office.

The report mentioned that drug cartels in the area are very powerful, and six politicians have been killed this year alone. That night, I rewatched the Mexican film El Infierno（2010）.

Favourite SNL Sketch?

On NBC and its streaming platform, Peacock, there is a new documentary series titled SNL 50: Beyond Saturday Night. It commemorates 50 years of Saturday Night Live, the infamous sketch-comedy show that has given us comedic celebrities like Norm Macdonald, Eddie Murphy, Tina Fey, Will Ferrell and Marcello Hernandez.

Follow the link for a clip featuring Crispino and his the third-hand news guys, Angelo Skaggs (played by Ryan Gosling): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6t7h2VyEm4M What is your favourite SNL sketch/character of all time?
