Kingdom 1-1 in one tab….
..Sneaky Pete 1-2 I do like the open, I like ribsi “you’re good. you got that it’s a number card in red. … but you’re not great. it’s a six of hearts.” *** /done. it held my attn. I like watching Ribsi a lot.
…Sherlock 4-2
—————————
giovannie ribsi .. Meadowland. ~ nah.
*** while watching Sneaky Pete: ahhh. two satisfying answers to that ‘look alike’ feeling /// it’s a feeling. you have the feeling of the person resembled, before you know who it is. and in what does that feeling consist? has to do w looks but also voice. their expressiveness. it is wh interests me. we hardly have any way of talking about it, but I think its intrigue is why there are so many ‘looks like’ threads on imdb. ~ vibe. ~aura. the ‘outline’ of the person, I think someone I read long time ago referred to. for wh you take in, remember, of a person. ///
1. giovanni ribsi kept reminding me of someone. someone he maybe d n used to look like. th has to do w age, his older face. especially the crinkles around his eyes, when he smiles.
I could tell the feeling was about ~ someone older, pretty big famous actor, the charm of that crinkle smile. ~ rob lowe no.. not tom cruise. not kevin costner. … finally: Bruce Willis. yes!!
2. and now just hit me (when wasn’t looking for it! ) this actress Marin Ireland, scrutinizing, at some moments can see can she look typically hot blonde? when first saw her (and thought good, compelling) as terrorist wife in homeland, the ~ less attractive aspect of her face seemed emphasized in the char, and int. and now I wonder wld other ppl not necess see it? or wld they, and call it ~ flattened.. Ah! Alison Wright! secretary Martha in The Americans (and, coincidentally, also appearing here). isn’t that right? when first saw Martha, so familiar…. in that facial aspect, I d n know if it is a flatness, actually, that comes into my mind unexaminedly, about chin or .. ( squashed, not to be unkind, pug like). so: Marin Ireland was the answer. I think? was s1 homeland prior (I was in Atl?) to s1 the americans? I think so… y Homeland Oct11; Americans Jan13 (ah still in atl, remember I got my mom and becky to watch the greg episode th I tht was so good). I had given up on ever identifying who Martha had reminded me of, at this pnt was more or less resting content with feeling she reminded me of herself.
3.…….and another! ep 7~ 17 min in. kid clerk. eyes espccly - Matthew Rhys.
4 Virginia Kull as katie a look I like. some side angle like kirsten dunst. but str on smtimes like julia stiles. and an effect like leighton meester. ! //then appeared as teacher in Big Little Lies

netflix: Mustang. turkish re girls. .. Bob and the Trees. Mississippi Damned. Dixieland. Promised Land. Aint Them Bodies Saints. Rams. (& documentaries: Brothers Keeper. Aint in it for my health: a film about Levon Helm.** Winding Stream (Carters). Dark Star. )

Febr 8th Legion on FX fr Noah Hawley (fargo).
// David Haller was diagnosed with schizophrenia at a young age, and has been a patient in various psychiatric hospitals since. / actually is son of Prof X charles xavier (xmen)
wkp Charles Xavier: Charles meets with former lover Gabrielle Haller on Muir Isle and discovers that they had a child. The boy, David, is autistic and suffers from multiple personality disorder and has vast psionic powers like his father. After helping him and his team to escape from David's mind, Xavier promises he will always be there for him.
wkp Legion (David Charles Haller) : He takes the role of an antihero and has a severe mental illness, including a form of dissociative identity disorder, with each of his personas controlling one of his many superpowers. /so thus ‘legion’ /y/ is named after the Biblical demon Legion. A man possessed by many evil spirits was asked by Jesus what his name was, to which he replied "I am Legion, for we are many."/// Jean Smart as Melanie Bird: A demanding psychiatric therapist who uses "unconventional" methods. Aubrey Plaza as Lenny Busker: Haller's friend who is an "impossible optimist" despite a history of drug and alcohol abuse and a rough demeanor. and huh, recurring: Jemaine Clement

in depth realism
Elena (2011 russian film) - az rvw by Victor: Excellent film,
-Victor: While some reviews argue about the slow pacing, I must have been in the right mood as each sequence of this movie had me eagerly anticipating what might be coming next. The plot is straightforward, as we are looking at a woman whose son and grandson have career goals of looking in the refrigerator, playing video games, and waiting on her to provide them with extra cash. Naturally, her older husband, has quite an aversion to able bodied men who will not get up and work, and seem to expect a free ride from his wealth. The wife takes exception to the fact that her wealthy older husband, does not apply these standards to his own daughter, who also lives off of his wealth. I did get a bad feeling things were going to take a turn down a much darker path as the film wore on, and there is not a good ending here. The actors were really great in their realistic performances, and all of them are quite convincing. The director presents an objective eye to the audience, and simply relays the plot without trying to sway viewers in one direction or another. In the end, it will be up to each viewer to decide who did the right or wrong thing, and ultimately each viewer will have a different opinion. Such in depth realism I find sadly lacking in many of our American made dramas, and have to say this is really engaging drama at its finest.
// *in depth realism* .. well said th wh wife 'takes exceptn' to is that he d n 'apply same standards' to his daughter. // int, she does seem less of a ~ louche ? no wh is the word? (and is it itslf classist?). we see son drinking, sitting around watching tv, being obnoxious to his wife .. whereas we see daughter being insoucient .. does she only seem less offensive bcs more moneyed, all her life? and in keeping w that more attractive, smarter. so she seems to be living without responsibility ~self-consciously ~ bcs of anger, lack of hope. but isn't son also living his lazy way for same reasons? just less self-conscious, and that bcs of cultural circumstance?

conservative says: at what cost?
What books should a conservative read to understand liberalism? - Quora:
The progressive impulse is to, for example, build a bridge; the conservative impulse is to question the cost, the impact, and why you would want to put a bridge somewhere where there never was one before. The progressive impulse is to embrace change that it hopes will lead to a better world; the conservative impulse is to question the change because just as often, man's progressive impulses have been shown to lead to at best something other than what he sought; at worst, they lead to a less desirable world than before.
So think of conservatives, properly understood, as people who are instinctively suspicious of change--and have plenty of good reasons to feel that way.
When these two impulses are in healthy balance, we collectively make better decisions.
Which leads me to why I can't be identified with conservatives any longer: for the most part in America they have been subsumed by the Religious Right and the Tea Partiers, neither one of which has any interest in what conservative has traditionally meant.

What books should a conservative read to understand liberalism? / or liberals. ppl they see as elitist jerks.

The progressive impulse is to embrace change that it hopes will lead to a better world; the conservative impulse is to question the change because just as often, man's progressive impulses have been shown to lead to at best something other than what he sought; at worst, they lead to a less desirable world than before. So think of conservatives, properly understood, as people who are instinctively suspicious of change--and have plenty of good reasons to feel that way.
When these two impulses are in healthy balance, we collectively make better decisions.

with no one /rectify
When you are alone with yourself all the time, with no one but yourself,
you begin to go deeper and deeper into yourself until you lose
yourself.
It's a perverse contradiction.
It's like your ego begins to disintegrate until you have no ego.
Not in the sense that you you become humble or or or gain some kind of
perspective, but that you literally lose your sense of self. // he is not crying yet, as says lose yrslf. cries at: not sure anyone can understand. //
And I'm not sure anyone, unless they have gone through it, can can can truly understand how (INHALES DEEPLY) profound that loss is.

Those other guys in the house, Nate, Pickle, Tyrus, when they were in prison, they were usually around a lot of other guys, right? Interacting. Sounds like prison. I was alone, interacting with myself. I'm aware of that. Or the voices inside the grate. Voices? The other inmates on the row. We would communicate with each other through the grates. I see. Sometimes with friends, sometimes with no friends at all. But no matter who it was, I would never get to see them or feel them, their their presence. And that's not the same. No. No, it's not. And I did that. I lived like that for 20 years. That's a long time. It's a strange way to exist. It's inhuman. What is it, Dan? If not now, when? After my friend was executed, I became despondent more despondent. I guess depressed. Enraged. But more than anything, I was lonely. So deeply lonely. He had protected me from that more than I realized. I bet.

The tiny little issue I am having, Avery, is that I don't know what real is. I don't truly know what I did or didn't do. I can say I am a convicted murderer, which is true. I am convicted. And I can say that I killed her, too Hanna which I have said more than once. And I can even imagine that I killed her, which I have imagined, because that's what I've been asked to do multiple times. But I honestly can't say that I did, in fact, kill her. Because I just don't remember, for the life of me. And that's (EXHALES SHARPLY) Your truth. Yes. That's my truth. And what if you never know what happened? I don't know. And I don't know what to do with that unknowing. Sounds like you got to accept it. What else can you do? It's not so easy. Of course it isn't, but you never tried, have you? No. - Why not? - I don't know. Come on. You know why not. Because I don't feel like I deserve it. I-is that the answer you wanna hear? Deserve what? A life? I didn't think it would end this way. That you'd get out? Alive. No. Then that's what you've got to decide, whether you deserve a life or not, out here, after all you've been through. After all that punishment, after all that suffering, your one life. Do you deserve to live it? And just because you don't remember or know for sure whether you killed that girl or not, that doesn't mean you did it either. Right? Maybe you oughta lean the other way for a while, that you didn't do it. But if I lean that way, it it means Means what? That I'm just making a decision. Okay. What else can you do? Not make a decision? And isn't that the same thing? And didn't you already make a decision the other way? This may sound hokey as shit, but you gotta figure out some way to love yourself.

political ~ man is animal who speaks
meanwhile d trump. that debate. felt like the grownups -civilizatn - might not be able to keep things ~ civil. reasonable. not man against man. trump “it’s one against three” - they were trying. felt like we need Obama.
(saw tweet quoting the republ ~ last thing we want is four more yrs of obama. and saying, that is wh we want, that is all we want.)
trump felt to me like jack nicholson in A Few Good Men. like Trump, saying he hadn’t paid taxes, or saying sth else, would - w that hand gesture let me tell it like it is yeah I did this look, this what everyone does - go too far. say sth straight up unacceptable. wh I guess wld have to be legally actionable, immediately. like j nicholson saying he ordered the code red, and everyone got quiet. and that was it. no more question. and the prosecutor for the us govt kevin bacon had to recover, and arrest the general.
like that moment where everyone will looks around, clinton too, and then what?
who wld hv bn the authority in that room? here? the moderators? the debate commision? security police?
...
//this is where I am. this is personally how I react: who will keep that room safe?
with the danger I see being? this one man. Trump. to the room.
threatens to override the civility of the institutions he is within.
/and I might like a radical who disrupts that civility? if in the name of - well, if acting out of a subjectivity that is appealing and relatable to me? even, maybe, "burn it all down". [I'm Not There - christian bale at civil liberties dinner, drunk, getting award, saying he saw in Kennedy's assassin sth he has felt.] (but also I think that would be contained. that is danger possible in and from me, but it is not widely present in people, or ~ not in a way they would act on? that feeling tends to stay more solitary. doesn't it? it's not a feeling of people in power, accruing power. usually. what feeling? despair. > nihilism.)
Trump wants followers. he wants to be big. famous. motivated to be beloved and right and to win. and capable at it.
bullying. I mean even if not choosing to be. will react to any slight with a great attempt to injure. and is capable at those attempts to injure. goes all in. unabashed. which is powerful. to meet with Clinton accusers and bring them to family row of debate! audacious. and effective, made an impact, created to me huge tension. ///
... What Is Truth?
what is amazing is th if you trust Trump and distrust Clinton (cause & effect going either way), you think a moment like that almost happened that was -her- -- admitting criminality -- in not denying deleted emails.
and so trump is saying he wld put her in jail.
and he says she lies and lies.
and the thing is ‘we’ see this as extreme, coming from him, who hardly has any seeming deference to facts at all.
vs: she lies in ordinary political ways of public private not-earnest means-to-ends … we are used to it, accept it as not (newly) dangerous, but we welcome Bernie saying No to it, saying let’s say true things. let's call it out. let's not accept but try to fight against the current state of things. danger already having befallen us. of great inequality. of climate damage.
we say yes she is not a truth teller. we say: but Trump just says wildly false things, contradictory one moment to next.
but to his supporters he seems like a truth teller. maybe he gets facts wrong; but I guess cld look like he gets the gist? he believes wh he says. is this accurate? he believes wh he says (wh makes it amazing if we are against him and we are considering facts); Clinton believes wh she says only in a complicated way ~ she believes it is worth saying, maybe.
~~ it’s like incompatible species. I mean actually. I mean sort of like clan of the cave bear. not as an insult. the neanderthals may have been better people, even better as a species in a way.
but the cro magnons could just do subtraction. cld just reverse addition. as a mental process. and the neanderthals couldn’t get minds around it. wh also means maybe cld hv appreciated it as an amazing thought, not just a mental manuever (this does not apply to trump, but to someone who is not espclly sharp, but thoughtful?).
cro magnon mind more sophisticated ~ means what? can make more movements. triplicate ratio.
I don’t know. incompatible, though.
and I’d rather the same old status quo lying? than an earnest hugely wrong (re facts) reactionary style.
I’d rather smart.
smart *and* earnest, if you can get it. (Bernie.) Obama? compare/contrast. Obama's selling point is smart rather than earnest. inspiring. yes idealism. but not such a progressive? (why not?) Obama is an orator and a leader. Sanders is a legislator and an activist. ~ maybe, but cld say same of the other.
/so, how about ted cruz? smart, right? and earnest ~ no. but let's say he was, but just earnest about policies I do not like. wh means what? policies I do not think *nice* - to those not sharing beliefs, christian stances mainly. ~ to not straight ppl. to women who want not to have children..
I'd go for not so smart but earnest and careful, maybe, if able to work together with smart.
People are different to each other.
looking at Trumps crowd
(apparently all white, behind podium in western PA on Monday; but probably some non-white). upsetting.
viewing this as a divide among people - not the two nominees' personalities but the people who support them - (so personalities of the nominees in as much as how they appeal to these ppl, wh ppl see)
left vs right? liberal vs conservative = at very basic = hope vs fear
(even while Clinton may be pretty conservative, still she does seem to have ideals .. and pretty certainly people who want the world to progress, to *become* better *for people who are not like them*, are with her, right? versus people who want the country to *return* to and be safeguarded as prosperity *for people like them* are with Trump? )
I can see what they like, I think. “lock her up” goes too far, chanting, bcs aren’t they struck - even if they think her actions are illegal - that chanting for her lock-up is … like a mob?
so what do I see? they think open borders is extreme, crazy. they boo the idea that Hilary wants to rule the world (she doesn’t, but yes I suppose she wld want a more united world!) vs Trump wants to make the country great again. against the world. he will make it so You Win.
why would you not want a borderless world? maybe you say: bcs it isn’t that. get real. “give me a break.” bcs we are at war. right? that is the view. but even as an ideal? seriously: bcs it means no job for you. insecurity. other people getting what is yours. other people on your home ground hurting you. you want to be protected.
govt shld protect its people.
conservative ~ protecting freedoms first of all. people get to do what they can for themselves, uninhibited by govt. get to protect their property. >> this becomes: get to keep out foreigners, get to not share. and govt shld do this on the larger scale.
and not that clinton doesn’t agree, right, that govt must protect from outside threats but her protection from ~encroachers~ even in theory compromised by ideas of fairness (the left).
and in practice, the bigger deal, she disdains you. she thinks you are lesser.
~~ I think she means it that she wants to be president for everyone. I think she prob is capable of sympathy for most individuals in need. but as a crowd and a sentiment, does she disdain people who think protectionism has to trump ~decency? probably. seems less smart. bigoted. / seriously: what is the case for ~bigotry? in seriousness, mostly a case wld not be made for being a bigot. wld be said that ppl are attacked as 'bigots' for wanting to stand up for thmslvs. they get attacked as racist, dumb, etc. ok. and why is it that standing up for thmslvs has to look like that (open thmslvs up to that)? bcs not everyone can win. bcs affirmative action means: someone got your spot. (you only don’t hv to worry about this if your spot was never in qstn? as an ‘elite’)
in short, I’d like us not to think “it’s crazy” that ppl cld want trump as president and believe wh he says, but to consider why. not disdainfully. like even if we disagree, do not diagnose. just disagree. but understand they actually want something here. right. they think it will be better. why do they think that? because: he’s real, he’s not smug (twd them), he’s successful and he will succeed on their behalf.
and the readiest most important argument here is probably: he won’t. he won’t make things better for you.
that is actually wh shld be conveyed, right?
it is easy and interesting (to me!!) to get caught up in why this man trump is terrible. unbelievably reactionary to any criticism, and unthoughtful. but so what? his supporters like his demeanor, more or less, and even if they don’t, so what, if they think he will be a better president? for you.
wh is pretty much our position, many of us, w Hillary. we don’t love her ways, personally. but she’ll do her best and she is very capable.
trump supporters wld say the same, right: he will do his best, and he is very capable.
and so the thing is, will he? make things better for you? even, might he?
is someone putting out reasoned discussion of why and how he probably will not?
I suppose so, and that is just not what I am reading (other than saying he won’t bcs he is nuts etc). there are articles saw one today what a trump presidency wld look like. this seems like the way to campaign against him. convey to supporters: Will you get what you want? No. (assuming that is the answer.)
like, will be bring back steel and mining to western PA?
(seems bad for envmt I guess, but maybe it's happening elsewhere he says and you are just going to reclaim it. that aside, will he bring jobs and prosperity to them?)
////// could I write this in an organized way?
if I had a very good motivation? still, not easily?
bcs it is stream. it's not declarative. is any of this a declaration I'd want to *make" and *stand by*? maybe as a declaration of what I think, how it seems to me.... but: as it is? the part after "I think", not the fact I am thinking that ~~~~

“Gender?” they would say, “I hardly know ‘er!” /// I start to consider what I might be, if my girlness hasn’t counted simply because it wasn’t overtly confessed.
I Am A Transwoman. I Am In The Closet. I Am Not Coming Out. – Medium
Imagine a cis-woman evenly saying: “I wish I looked like that but I don’t and can’t. It sucks and it makes me feel really awful if I brood on it. That’s why I focus on my writing—I’d rather make things. Investing in and building things that aren’t my body helps me cope with the body issues I’ve been saddled with against my will.”
She doesn’t sound like she needs advice on how makeup will actually fix her core problem, does she? She seems like she’s doing alright. I’m her and I’m trans. That’s all.
I appreciate the encouragement I receive from trans friends, but I reject the implication that transitioning is my destiny. My brain is my brain — my body is my body. They don’t match, and I’ve chosen to devote my energy to coming to terms with that and focusing on other things, rather than trying to change my body. I am not advocating this position to other trans people or discouraging anyone from pursuing the path they feel is best for them.
The best I can do, for me, is divest—as best I can—my identity from my appearance and focus, mindfully, on other things. It’s not impossible! Look at those Dust Bowl folks—they were just trying to drive across the country in a jalopy! “Gender?” they would say, “I hardly know ‘er!” // :)
I am eighteen years old. I am in college. I learn that some people ask to be called by different pronouns. I see how this feels in my head. It doesn’t make much of a difference. I still want to sit in that chair and flip that switch. Pronouns are the least of my concerns.
I visit a women’s college. I am surrounded by new women and we feel instantly comfortable around each other. I attend a lecture. The speaker yells “who gets to be a woman?” and a crowd of cis women responds “anyone who wants to be!”
The sentiment is nice, but I think about the years I spent staring out the window at the stars and I feel suddenly uncomfortable.
Later during this trip I am having a conversation with my new friends about femininity. They are articulate and intelligent women. I’m grateful to be around them. Until I am told by one of them, angrily, that I am not really allowed to talk about femininity because I am a straight cis boy. It is not my place and it is not my territory. I should shut up and listen.
I start to consider what I might be, if my girlness hasn’t counted simply because it wasn’t overtly confessed. I think about my boyness—about my childhood and adolescence—how my experiences with boys deviated from what I was taught to expect.
I change my major and spend a year writing about non-gay-identifying male femininity from the Aesthetics of the late 1880’s to vaudeville radio stars. Eventually, as a love-hate letter to coming-of-age films of the 80’s, 90’s and early 00’s, I write my thesis on the friendship and sexuality of American males and its representation in television & film. One piece of feedback is “I am so sick of boys writing about boys.”
I think about being told I was not allowed to speak about femininity. I wonder what a person like me is allowed to speak about.
One of the boys from boarding school, who began to shower with me late at night, who told me through gritted teeth that he was too skinny and too fat, throws himself in front of a train.
I hate that the only effective response I can give to “boys are shit” is “well I’m not a boy.” I feel like I am selling out the boy in baseball pajamas that sat with me on the bed while I tried to figure out which one I was supposed to be, and the boys who I have met and loved from inside my boy suit—who believed they were talking to a boy. I feel like I am burning the history of the naked body that sits on the floor of my shower. The body that went to prom in a boxy tuxedo and coveted the gowns.
Because I am not a boy, but I am a woman who had a boyhood.
I was, and am, made to live as a boy and I cannot suspend the perspective that gave me..
((and join in when it’s time to fluster one of those clueless fuckers into anger .. so we can grab those solidarity faves. It’s fucked up. It has metastasized.))

tele-v Sept 2016
…
People of Earth. 31 Oct TBS http://www.metacritic.com/pictures/fall-tv-preview-2016
Search Party. airs November 21-25 on TBS: This serialized, darkly comedic mystery series—which has good early buzz following its SXSW debut in the spring—finds a group of self-absorbed 20-somethings (led by Alia Shawkat) uniting to investigate the disappearance of one of their college classmates. Though the cast features several relatively unknown regulars (other thanArrested Development star Shawkat), you'll spot Rosie Perez, Ron Livingston, Parker Posey, and Christine Taylor in recurring roles. Adopting yet another unusual rollout strategy, TBS will air the entire first season during Thanksgiving week, with two episodes airing late each night. /int :) this appealed to me back when I read re upcoming tbs ~ futon critic ~ & saw trailer.
….
Gilmore Girls Season 8 streams November 25 on Netflix / oh right! not just all seven seasons now avail ~ maybe watch sometimes casually I wonder ~ will I still like Lorelai so well, after not liking lauren graham so m ~ in parenthood. but yes new season will hold enough curiosity to me to be int I think!! // Although beloved by many, the 2000-2007 WB/CW dramedy ended on a bit of a sour note, with a final season that was missing creator/writer/producer Amy Sherman-Palladino. But she, husband and co-writer/co-director Dan Palladino, and virtually the entire Stars Hollow gang (including stars Lauren Graham and Alexis Bledel, plus Melissa McCarthy in at least a limited capacity) are back for this Netflix revival, which consists of four 90-minute movies/episodes set during a different season over the course of one year (hence the newGilmore Girls: A Year in the Life title), picking up about eight years after events in the original series. And, despite earlier hints at a staggered release, all four of those episodes will be available to stream immediately in November. Expect some new faces as well, including Graham's Parenthoodco-star Mae Whitman //oh int! her other daughter :) I wonder as who? her other daughter :)/, plus cast members (including Sutton Foster) from Sherman-Palladino's Gilmore Girls follow-up Bunheads.
14 Sept watch now:
* Something, Anything - Netflix - expires 19 Sept! ~ 5 days to watch http://www.rogerebert.com/reviews/something-anything-2015
Something, Anything movie rvw (2015) | Roger Ebert / gradually (if gently) retreats into contemplation... After losing the baby, Peggy recoils into herself: the Southern middle-class world she took for granted suddenly becomes unfamiliar to her, maybe even slightly repugnant in its focus on possessions and status. An unexpected sympathy note from a high-school friend now a Kentucky-based Trappist monk .. She quits her job in favor of a lesser-paid position at a local library, cancels her phone service and starts looking into the possibility of monastic living. ** religious vocation treated with all the attentiveness and respect one would hope for when dealing with anyone’s sense of purpose in life. /this is a v nice review/
It would be too much to call “Something, Anything” a story of religious conversion—things never go so far, since Peggy (at one point adopting her given name, Margaret, as a sign of the change she underwent) is only just starting to explore her spiritual side. The script is not pushing her to make any steady commitment to a denomination or a church. in fact there’s a suggestion that what draws [her] towards monastic life is less the divinity it is centered on than the seclusion it offers..
At one point, Peggy reveals that she used to be a competitive cheerleader, and there is indeed something of a cheerleader’s poise and diligence about her. It’s there even in the religious pursuit we witness: the subtle humor of “Something, Anything” comes from the fact that Peggy is loaning /borrowing?/ out books and making notes on the nature of prayer almost as if she were preparing for some spiritual baton-twirling marathon. She cannot help herself; her seriousness about her choices is her armor (and one much more lasting than the blood-red nail polish we see her apply in the first shots of the film, when she still defines herself by other people’s perception of who she is).
...that what draws Peggy towards monastic life is less the divinity it is centered on than the seclusion it offers, which only adds to the overall subtlety .. sustained tone serene opening motto fr poem christina rosetti Who has seen the wind **

The serialized drama stars Billy Bob Thornton (a replacement, though not a downgrade, for the originally cast Kevin Costner /I’d be m less int!) as a down-and-out attorney seeking redemption through a major case that finds him attempting to take down a giant aerospace company and its powerful law firm. William Hurt, Maria Bello, Olivia Thirlby, Molly Parker, Dwight Yoakam, Jason Ritter, and Sarah Wynter also star.

Blogging "Django Unchained" (Heading to Candyland) - Fort Worth Weekly /this is good.. am int in wh he is ldg to, w Stephen: Stephen rises up out of his chair and comes out to greet the master. His eyes widen at the sight of Django riding in on a horse, then narrow with anger. I really should have had this character pegged from the start, but more on that later. .. Calvin greets Stephen, and the latter responds, “Yeah, yeah. Hello, my ass.” I could always feel audience bracing themselves for a typically Samuel L. Jackson loud and brash performance at this line, and I was bracing for one, too, when I first saw this, but this is something else, as we’ll see. >>> what? *
-
This is where Calvin’s relatively enlightened nature makes him more dangerous. A racist fool like Big Daddy wouldn’t even perceive the double-dealing here, but Calvin does because he has no problem with the idea that a black man has temporarily outsmarted him, or with another black man pointing that out.
He accepts that an African-American can be intelligent, but does that bring him around to the idea that slavery is wrong? Of course not! He’s like Hans Landa in Inglourious Basterds, a bad guy who realizes that the people he’s stepping on are no worse than himself, a realization that only allows him to trample those people more efficiently. Calvin knows that the system is unfair, but because that unfairness benefits him, he doesn’t care. How many people do we see around us who fit this description? It’s funny; you wouldn’t think of turning to Tarantino’s movies for a critique of capitalism, but Django Unchained offers up a pretty good one anyway. (And how different would this movie have looked if Mitt Romney had won the 2012 presidential election the month before it came out? I can’t imagine, and I’m glad I didn’t have to find out.)
