It can only be, for me, the 1701-B. 🖖

John Landis tipped his hat to Wilder by including a snippet from Sunset Boulevard during a sequence* in Trading Places as holiday TV that's watched by a couple of the characters. *(This sequence is not present in the theatrical version.)

It began much earlier than that. "Network" by Sidney Lumet contains a scene that discusses the issue - and it was made 50 years ago. Decades prior, Walter Lippmann and Edward Bernays wrote of the need to concentrate matters concerning decision making within a "specialised" minority of society.

A quote that good deserves a clip! 😁

The Manchurian Candidate (1962). 😨

I can't sleep, so I'm revisiting John Singleton's 1993 flick "Poetic Justice." It's undeniable that Singleton's debut "Boyz n the Hood" is a classic but this and "Higher Learning" are underrated. It's a shame that Janet Jackson hasn't done more films as she turned in a solid performance here. 👏

Especially "Revenge of the Sith" where the calculating chancellor capitalises on an assassination attempt to finally push through his long coveted agenda…

RIP to Marcia Lucas, who *along with* Paul Hirsch and Richard Chew edited the original Star Wars trilogy with excellence. In tribute to their work, I had to share a clip of the original - and now largely suppressed 1977 film for which the trio won an Oscar and not the post 1997 special "editions."

Defaulting to GB News on power up? The very thought of knowing that awaits you and the preparedness to change the channel as quickly as possible is traumatising. No matter how fast you react, you'll be exposed to a few seconds of Holmes, Rees-Mogg, Christys and Farage. 🤮 Glad you got it resolved!

I was going to copy this and then I realised that I didn't have a tape on hand! 😁 (My +2B needs a good clean…)

Hartenstein screens for Shai Gilgeous-Alexander. Wemby is near the level and dropping. Hartenstein again is not really rolling he's looking to hit Wemby to engage him so he can impact Shai. Champagnie holds his help, Caruso flows to the corner and hits another 3. Timely.

Plato knew a thing or two. Problem is our governmental system still ignores his advice. In the UK our electoral system is specifically designed to enhance these shortcomings. If we don't get electoral reform before the next election, the consequences could be catastrophic for this country.

.@deluzio.house.gov is right. It's very clear that Donald Trump has NO IDEA what to do in Iran. Yet it's everyday Americans and our fallen service members that pay the price of this War.
