  Alice, Darling 2022

  ½ Watched 26 Oct 2023

  This film is made up of many superfluous components, has no suspense whatsoever and just shows another expected toxic relationship. No originality, no new approach to an old narrative. I don't know what such a film is good for...it is not entertaining, exciting or warning, it doesn't show a way out or give help to relatives. It doesn't even tell an interesting story. If then the film shows at most the effect of toxic behavior on the partner.

Also, it seems as if the people in charge had made up their minds…

  Blue Eyed 1996

  ★★★★ Rewatched 17 Feb 2020

  Shows how and why racism works and what devastating effects it has.

  Should be seen by everyone. Should be shown in schools or the experiment itself should be performed in schools and workplaces. All respect to Jane Elliott.
