8 out of 10

 

I have written a review on The Front Runner https://realinibarzoi.blogspot.com/2025/10/the-front-runner-based-on-book-by-matt.html but it was on some channel recently, and although it is not spectacular, it is still worth watching, especially given the contrast between what happened in 1988 and then in 2016 and then in

 

-          2024

 

The American electorate brought on top of the world an Orange Joker – he is still there as we speak – recently, even after he showed between 2016 and 2020 what he can do, what with the mob occupying The Capitol, keeping state secrets in the bathroom, trying to steal the elections and more – and then we have Senator Hart

Gary Hart should have read The Seven Principles of Making Marriage Work https://realinibarzoi.blogspot.com/2025/03/the-seven-principles-of-making-marriage.html a psychology classic by John Gottman, in case he made some mistakes, however, standards have changed in the meantime

 

Senator Gary Hart was a remarkable man – indeed, he might be alive today – smart, articulate, charming, original, he had qualities missing in many (most) leaders, especially if we look at the administration that looks like a line up of clowns and weirdos, one has been changed for another yesterday

Noem, the Homeland Secretary has been fired and replaced by another incredible moron, she had been so disgusting – she wrote an autobiography, or at least she read the audiobook version, and she boasted about shooting dead her puppy and goat, and then lied about meeting Kim of North Korea – a parade of fools

 

In 1988, Gary Hart is favorite to win the presidential elections, he has the abilities, the popularity, except he makes a mistake – maybe a few – he tells a reporter to follow him, and an outfit from Florida does just that, only to discover that a good-looking woman enters the flat where the politician is staying and does not leave at night

Or so it seemed

 

The apartment has another exit, ergo, she could have used that…this is Much Ado About Nothing https://realinibarzoi.blogspot.com/2025/09/much-ado-about-nothing-by-william.html if we compare with what happens at the top now, it looks as innocent games, it is awful to see that a monster is elected and he has so much power

In The Fade aka Auf Dem Nichts, written by Hark Bohm and Fatih Akin

  In The Fade aka Auf Dem Nichts, written by Hark Bohm and Fatih Akin In The Fade has won the Golden Globe for Best Foreign Film, although in this cinephile's opinion, Una Mujer Fantastica- which has won the Oscar in the same category- Nelyubov or The Square would have been better choices. Having said that, Auf Dem Nichts is a very good, significant, remarkable feature, that attracts attention to violence against minorities, in this case the Kurdish community in Germany. It is therefore not one sided, we do not have only Muslim lunatics killing innocent "infidels", but also some extreme Europeans murdering the other side. The problem is that, unacceptable, horrifying and vile as these acts are, it appears that the overwhelming majority of atrocities are committed by zealots acting in the name of Islam- radical and unrepresentative as they are for this supposedly peaceful faith, although there are passages in its holy book that seem to insist on a violent jihad and ultimat...

Sybil, or Two Nations by Benjamin Disraeli is included on The 1,000 Novels Everyone Must Read List, in the State of The Nation section - 9 out of 10

  Sybil, or Two Nations by Benjamin Disraeli is included on The 1,000 Novels Everyone Must Read List, in the State of The Nation section 9 out of 10     We like to think that we have made incredible progress, through the centuries, and indeed, if we think mobile phones, vaccines (though not for the conspiracy theories enthusiasts), travel, then we are so far even from the decades pat, and yet, take Benjamin Disraeli and the magnificence he represents and compare him with…   Orange Jesus, Sunak and so many others, and you must be appalled, for Disraeli has been a Prime Minister, not just once, but twice, and wrote this marvelous work, and overall, proved that he was an intellectual without equal on the scene of the world today, where you see multiple monsters, and few decent humans In Sybil, the author proves that he was concerned with the situation of the working classes, the destitution, squalor in which they lived, he was interested in Chartism, and h...
