Stephen Baker:  

Excerpt form NY Times 5.14.24: The hunt for the next movie sensation. This year’s lineup goes heavy on all-star auteurs, with new films from Yorgos Lanthimos (“Kinds of Kindness”), Andrea Arnold (“Bird”), Sean Baker (“Anora”) and Paul Schrader (“Oh, Canada”). But Cannes is even more fun when an unexpected movie pops, as “Anatomy of a Fall” did last year when it earned rave reviews and the Palme d’Or, setting up a path that would eventually lead to Oscar glory.

Sean Baker's latest movie RED ROCKET scored 96 on Totten Tomatoes. From Roger Ebert.com The first of them is “Red Rocket,” Sean Baker’s shrewd, gritty, and unfailingly hilarious follow-up to 2017’s “The Florida Project,” that made a splash in Telluride following its Cannes debut earlier this summer. Baker proves once again that he knows how to approach stories about Americans on the fringes as a considerate outsider, immersing himself in the details of the world he depicts intimately, then transposing it onto the screen for all its tender, intricate realness. In his latest, he follows a washed-up former porn star named Mikey Saber, a calculating smooth-talker trying to figure out his next move in the Texan terrain, using everyone around him while he scopes out a desperate return to his glory days as an adult movie actor. other reviews on rotten Tomatoes Trump, dumb as a rock.

And Trump?: charlatan My bees are still vital. Went to feed them yesterday and found they were active, didn't need to be feed and Trump's pesticides have not killed them off to date (live within 1 mile of Trump International in Bedminster, NJ). Too bad the bees do not storm the club house. Better citizens than the deplorables.

Implicit in BLM is that all lives matter. Chanting all lives matter misses the point. BLM is not saying others do not matter. It is saying Blacks matter as much as all others and should not be killed for being Black. All lives matter dilutes the message and denigrates the Black lives that have been lost.
