Marsamitchell effect

From the late 1960s to the early 1970s, Marsamitchell was an unlikely American celebrity.

Martha married John Mitchell, Richard Nixon’s campaign manager, in 1968 and 1972. The wife of a politician, who was mostly male at the time, was expected to host a supportive and delicious dinner party. However, Martha was cut from another cloth. She had her own opinion and was delighted to appear in talk shows and magazines to talk about her politics and gossip in Washington, DC.

For years, the Nixon government liked or tolerated Martha. However, during the Watergate scandal in which Republican operatives attempted to steal documents from a rival’s office, Martha was virtually kidnapped, detained against her will, and taken her medicine.

Martha’s changes after the Watergate scandal were serious. She accused her friend Nixon and spoke publicly about the White House corruption. Marsamitchell was the first public figure in the United States to express these opinions.

The Martha effect is short, but it nicely summarizes a documentary about her life, work, and her impact on history. Nixon often said, “Without Martha, she wouldn’t have a watergate.” This is a story of hell.

ManVsBee is currently streaming on Netflix.

Man vs bee

You already know if Rowan Atkinson has experienced anything in the 30 years since the end of the final season of Blackadder.

Even though I admitted that Atkinson’s work has a lot of skills and skills, I wasn’t really warmed up by Mr. Bean and Johnny English.

So if you’re a Bean fan, this new Netflix series – Man Vs Bee – is probably easy for you. I wish the expression “easy” was not so appropriate.

ManVsBee is a series of nine episodes. Except for the first 17-minute epic, all episodes are about 11 minutes long. Those who are suspicious may notice immediately. So the series ManVsBee is about the same length as the average feature film. The show was originally marketed as a movie, but since it was knocked back, it was reimagined as a series of episodes, so no one would care if you didn’t watch at least one episode. From the beginning to the end.

Man Vs Bee casts Atkinson as an unfortunate, first-time professional answering machine. Of course, his first mission is a modern mansion owned by a ridiculous German-Asian couple whose expression “racist stereotypes” comes to mind. Fortunately, everyone knows that Atkinson is a cartoon genius who never relies on such a cheap and desperate laugh.

The house is, of course, full of horribly expensive pieces, the doors and cupboards are inoperable, the dog has a stomach condition, and when he eats anything other than branded food, he defecates like a fireball. .. ..

Of course, when Atkinson fights a bumblebee in his house, everything can break, explode, or be covered with dog droppings. No, it didn’t make sense to me either.

Man Vs Bee is a lazy, lowest common denominator exercise, playing the same gag 100 times and hoping to laugh once. The only thing it has to recommend it is Atkinson, which is still the best on the planet with this kind of schtick. If you like beans, you probably don’t care about Bee.

Moonrise Kingdom can now be streamed on Netflix.

Moonrise Kingdom

If you’re a Wes Anderson fan, you’ve already seen this many times. And all this review needs to tell you that the movie is currently available on Netflix.

But if you’re new to Anderson and haven’t seen Rushmore, Bottle Rocket, The Royal Tenenbaums, The Grand Budapest Hotel, Fantastic Mr. Fox, or last year’s French Dispatch, Moonrise Kingdom will at least start.

Anderson specializes in absurd and closely observed things. He likes to write about shy and compulsive people trying to walk his way in a world that celebrates loud fuss. Anderson’s hero is a lonely person, nerd, and incompatibility, he shoots in beautifully constructed, almost static frames, filled with details and visual gag that make repetitive viewing essential. increase.

The Moonrise Kingdom takes place in 1965 in a seaside town where two 12-year-olds fell in love and eloped and decided to live in a tent by the sea. Adult casts such as Bill Murray, Frances McDormand, and Bruce Willis are great, but child actors Kara Hayward and Jared Gilman are the souls of the film.

Moonrise Kingdom is a fun, skillful, inspiring, and pretty violent movie. Until I saw the Grand Budapest Hotel, I would have said it was Anderson’s best movie. Well, I say it’s a personal favorite and a classic like never before.
