Seeing it tomorrow. Looking forward to it because The Childhood of a Leader was great and, while uneven, Vox Lux was very impressive.

My expectations were set too high: It kept me engaged (which is a feat in itself since it lasts 3h20), but it left me cold. Maybe I hoped for more architecture? For more creative madness and fury? Instead it's more of a well crafted drama about two opposing figures. Still great news that such a film was produced AND made money.

Movie poster an upside-down Statue of Liberty and of course the title character is a jew and holocaust survivor. Shit is beyond tiresome.


Trump re-issued this EO from his first term so hopefully there'll be fewer of these eyesores in the future.
