Tonight - BIRDMAN OF ALCATRAZ, made in 1964 by a perfect match of John Frankenheimer & magnetic Burt Lancaster. A romanticized telling of the life of Robert Stroud, it was released at the pinnacle of American filmmaking and social idealism. A moment where we were brave enough to consider anything.

The proper lens to understand Trump has never been legal or political, but psychiatric. Psychologist John Gartner describes Trump's diagnosis - malignant narcissistic personality disorder - and its dangerous symptoms. BTW - we nailed this diagnosis in 2017 - www.streetroots.org/news/2017/10...
"Why do you think beauty is a stone on the beach for any passerby to pick up? Beauty is something wonderful and strange that the artist creates in torment and out of chaos. It is not easy to recognize at first. For that you must have knowledge, and sensitiveness, and imagination."
Not a good day. Here's the trailer from Brian Lindstrom's first and best film, FINDING NORMAL from 2007, which follows three people struggling in the first days of recovery. Every word their mentors use, every action, builds a delicate bridge back to life.
#1 PAGE ONE 2011. Documentary which highlights the late and missed David Carr (NIGHT OF THE GUN) as he shifts from media maven to investigative reporter, delivering the devastating message that credible news platforms are what keeps the barbarians at the gates. Slightly dated but still inspiring.
#3 SPOTLIGHT 2015. Michael Keaton leads a superb cast as The Boston Globe's "Spotlight" team and its investigation into a decades-long coverup of widespread and systemic child sex abuse by numerous priests of the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Boston. Thrilling, infuriating.
#2 CITIZEN KANE 1940. Perhaps the most important American film examines the life and legacy of Charles Foster Kane, played by Orson Welles, a composite character based on American media barons William Randolph Hearst and Joseph Pulitzer. How the media became a monster. Pinnacle of cinema.
#4 CITIZENFOUR 2014. Laura Poitras meets Edward Snowden the NSA contractor who leaked classified documents revealing the existence of global surveillance programs to the NY Times and Guardian. Google them both then you'll want to watch this film.
Tonight - HIROSHIMA, 1953 by Hideo Sekigawa. Controversial, searing, a docudrama using hibakusha actors to show rather than tell of the suffering of 140,000 humans killed by an arrogant emperor and a cruel president on the the other side of the world. www.criterion.com/current/post...
It's a John Barrymore week here, tonight with DINNER AT EIGHT by George Cukor in 1933. Barrymore by this time was both insane with alcoholism AND the greatest actor in the world. Barrymore knew it, the crew and actors knew it, the media knew it, the audience knew it. And he was terrific.
#11 HIS GIRL FRIDAY 1940. Howard Hawks, Rosalind Russell, Cary Grant, Ben Hecht; catty, offensive, funny, sexist then and now, fast-paced, hilarious, twists and turns. Seen THE FRONT PAGE? This is better.

Day 461 - Cutting gasoline prices 50% by 19 JAN 2026 ? Just another broken promise. This video shows trump making that promise on 10 October 2024 at the Detroit Economic Club in Detroit Michigan. He also promised he'd end Russia/Ukraine war in ONE day, and to lower grocery prices on day 1. Nope.

Right across our local area, SWR is delaying and cancelling more and more services. While I look forward to meeting with SWR's Managing Director to press these issues in person, I have, today, also called for a debate in Parliament to discuss SWR's poor service.
