The magnificent eptness of all the supporting cast manifests when .. you cringe! - not only at the "logic" happening, but in the fact that it is Effective... it is everywhere (and, don't we often wonder: Is Anyone? paying attention to this crap?!) :-/

(There's a fallacy within the Hottentot Proposition, I wot: ~~
"A civilized person can pretend to be a primitive, but not vice versa".
It just is Not Easy to bring this off; a tiny smirk at the wrong place can blow the persona.)

I don't see many 'new' movies; fortunately a friend who does see lots, will tag ones I might (umm stomach?) These two, in just past several months == a pretty high number for me.

One rubs our noses into the extremely profitable process of creating/rationalizing addictions (and our tolerance -nay, adoration- of ANYthing which is seen to generate $Success. Screw the means and the costs to others: just those Lusers, successfully scammed one more time.)

The other rubs noses into (waay into) the small industry of training little girls to vamp, to skip about 5 whole years beyond their emotional development - the premeditated sexualizing of tykes. To make $$ and win prizes, all entirely about the vicarious daydreams of those famous shallow parents.

Both flics succeeded IMO because the actors really Could (lower their consciousness) ~perfectly! A pair of bitchin lampoons, effective beyond any outraged polemic or {shudder} documentary.



Long Live Indy! - or most anything nonCorporate, by primal intent.
