I Care a Lot (2020)
The Britney Spears saga makes this film a must-see
'When helpers become predators' is the theme of this film, and the message is increasingly relevant today. The recent reports of how Britney Spears is being used by her own family should give the film a big bump up. It is well done for a low budget production. I wouldn't give it more than a 7 as a work of art; however, the film's value is greatly increased by its high degree of relevance today. "I Care a Lot" is relentlessly dark. There is violence, but it is not overdone. And the surprise ending leaves us with much needed hope for the future.
The Divided Brain (2019)
A New Way Forward for Humanity
Iain McGilchrist uses the latest findings of neuroscience combined with an impressive knowledge of human cultural history to analyze what has gone wrong with our world. More than just a brilliant analysis, The Divided Brain provides answers to what society must do to regain balance and return to sustainability. Iain McGilchrist also offers us a new way to understand the human experience, and be present in the world. This is an important film, indicating a new way forward for humanity.
Gisaengchung (2019)
The accolades ":Parasite" has received is testimony to the aesthetic blindness of our culture today.
One movie I definitely recommend you DO NOT see is "Parasite." For the first hour it is a clever and engaging black comedy, with pointed social satire, but it gradually morphs into an over the top slasher movie. It was like Tarantino and the Cohen brothers took over the set in the second half-- or they may have turned the plot development over to a team of adolescent skin-heads.
The fact that "Parasite" has received so many accolades is testimony to the state of aesthetic blindness of our culture today.
