Two Oscar Nominated Movies About Brazil's Years Of Lead In As Many Years.

I guess we'll just have to add it to the list of reasons why Trump needs to bring his Iran debacle to an end. The one he should never have launched into, following his Venezuela debacle. https://www.poetryfoundation.org/poems/50386/sonnet-138-when-my-love-swears-that-she-is-made-of-truth https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jq_FWScqyG8 (Sweet Child O' Mine, Guns N' Roses, Official Audio).

*tuts* Always The Way, With Some People(!)

https://www.tmz.com/2026/03/15/one-battle-after-another-wins-best-picture-at-2026-oscars/ Obviously it's got the slapstick battle between National Socialists (Fascists) and Marxist Socialists (Communists). Something which dominated the Developing world throughout the Neo-Colonial Era. Last year's huge movie; "I'm Still Here" looked at the topic in a lot of detail, particularly in terms of Brazil and Latin America. However The Oscars role in helping the US in its annual renegotiation of it's Social Contract is only one, civic duty, element of The Oscars. Primarily it's an event by a professional association serving an important role within the Movie & TV industry. "One Battle After Another" (2025) shows that role.

They Gathered Season 2 Up Under The; "Gangs Of" Umbrella.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OS7jVOFD0FE (Blocco 181 | Official Trailer, Video, Sky TV). Which, firstly, made it hard for me to notice that they'd made a Season 2. Then, secondly, made me not want to watch it. Despite having really enjoyed Season 1.

It's Certainly An Interesting Choice Of YouTube Video.
