The Taking of Pelham 123 (1974) - campy and dated thriller with an ensemble cast. Fun one to watch. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Taking...1974_film)

Yesterday (2019). This movie is from the edition of movies like the "Psycho" remake from the 90s which is an exact shot-by-shot remake, but in color, so when reporters asked its director why he made it, he said, "Someone had to do it".
The same goes for Yesterday because I presume that many people had a fantasy about stealing famous songs and publishing them as their own and enjoying the publicity and riches that come with it, so someone might as well make it into a movie. But this movie shows us that it's a bad thing because the music business is very mechanized where the artist plays a tiny role, and all that fame is just alienating, so it's better to go back to our jobs in retail (oh wait, they quickly wrote in that he is a teacher so that it wouldn't come off as fatalistic). And by this, they are also shitting on their own business where a person has an idea that automatically goes through the machinery of screenwriting tropes that create generic movies, so it's better to just stay a peasant and not bother.
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
Just got back from "American Fiction." Hollywood actually managed to make an intelligent comedy about race and the stereotypes ingrained in our entertainment culture. Fantastic film.
