Woody Guthrie wrote "All You Fascists Bound to Lose" in 1944. He was right then. Bette Midler is making sure we remember it now. Midler just dropped a full music video remake of Guthrie's classic anti-fascist anthem, and it hits different in 2026.

In case you missed this exchange! Rep. Bennie Thompson asked the FBI’s own National Security ops dir. to explain “ANTIFA.” Result? No members. No leadership. No HQ. No structure. No proof it even exists as an organization. Yet it’s still labeled a “top domestic threat.” #USDemocracy #Pinks

Roger Ebert's essay on this film is an all-time classic of film criticism imho, and cuts right to the movie's genius: a film which defends tradition and pig-headed experience, but marshalled against nazism www.rogerebert.com/reviews/grea...

The Life and Death of Colonel Blimp movie review (1943) | Roger Ebert
One of the many miracles of "The Life and Death of Colonel Blimp" is the way the movie transforms a blustering, pigheaded caricature into one of the most

“Be kind, be involved, believe in your art. At a time when people tell you art is not important, that is always a prelude to fascism. They think they can debase everything that makes us a little better, a little more human. And that, in my book, and in my life, includes monsters."

Confirmed this is in the works. Not sure why Fincher would want to make a spin-off to one of QT’s best. But he was willing to direct the WORLD WAR Z sequel for Pitt, so clearly he’ll do anything for him within reason. Curious to see how he makes QT’s material his own. deadline.com/2025/04/netf...
