#lastfourwatched #letterboxdfriday #letterboxd I think Small Things Like These was my favorite this week. Cillian Murphy is amazing and though it is austere in dialogue the body language, atmosphere, script, and performances pack a punch. Great directing.

A rousing good tune to get me started for the day. Óró Sé do Bheatha Bhaile is a call to arms like La Marseillaise. Translation in the other video version below. (with images of the movement up to the Easter Rising.) www.youtube.com/watch?v=bzXs...

This is a final record of my great great grandfathers unpaid debts in Ireland, accumulated between 1843-1846. It reads that he is now in England, the family,children are at Laragh (Lara) which is where they put poor peopole to work in Ireland and they lived in huts. The author notes "very poor".

Look at what they have done to Washington DC. White House torn up in several places for his bunker and wrestling events on the front lawn; reflecting pool drained and sad, Kennedy Center shuttered. They're censoring artifacts in historical museums too. Next we're getting a huge nazi arch.

He's the destroyer of society. No artists. No teachers. No historians. No liberal arts anywhere anymore. I'm distraught over this. I can't take much more of this. Every day it's a new level of destruction of society. I feel trapped.

Just to be clear: this kind of economic repression on the Ireland football team is a form of colonization and we are all about to be subjects or serfs to tech billionaires. #StopTheGame

I'm still unpacking all the layers to Ryan Coogler's magnificent film Sinners. This is one of the best analyses I've seen about one crucial scene. The layers of colonialism in this film! The choice of this song! Brilliance. I am 75% Irish and 25% Transylvanian. Perfect mix of vampire/Irish. LOL

This Warner Bros/Paramount merger now involves Elon Musk ownership. How much worse can this get?!? Musk controlling CNN, CBS News, and a good portion of the US film idustry invokes images of a vampire giddily biting down on the corpse of democracy in america. Fuck Gavin Newsom! He did this!

I don't know if I really want to spend 1.5 hours (or even 5 minutes) with a sociopath. I'm sure it will be riveting, kind of like when zombies start approaching you from a vast wheat field and you can't really tell that they're zombies.

"It's always been the artists role in society to speak out, to risk speaking truth to power." Yes, because art is truth or art is dead.

Almost every US movie made in the 40-50's was Hayes Code propaganda that influenced generations of Americans that women should compete for men and be housewives. Studios controlled by propagandists is a bad thing! When art is controlled by propagandists socieites are re-shaped.

#lastfourwatched #letterboxdfriday #letterboxd #filmsky The last 2 weeks I've been on a Jack O'Connell binge and I'm not ashamed of it. That man can do anything. And Ryan Coogler is a genuis. The intentionality he brings to sequencing for impact should be studied in every film school.

Had a listen to Aaron Rowe today and really love this track. Giving him some love for his principled stand on the Ed Sheeran tour but also for his songwriting. This is a beautiful song with traditional Irish vibes.

Sinners is a downright masterpiece of a film. So dense, so layered. The layers of colonization in this are a lot to unpack and it's done in the most entertaining way! Ryan Coogler is a genius and Jack O'Connell has become one of my favorite actors. www.youtube.com/watch?v=-WRV...

The thing about courage is that it’s contagious.
I have made the decision to withdraw as a support act for Ed Sheeran's 'The Loop' North American Tour.
I don't take the decision lightly. Ed has been a friend to me and has changed my life, I could never thank him enough for this.
But as Irish people we know all too well about genocide, forced famine and violent occupation.
I cannot stand by and allow billionaires to use their position of power to silence the rightful voices of those who speak up against Israeli genocide and who highlight the savage murder of children.
I would lose all respect for myself to carry on as normal.
I need to be true to myself and my ancestors who resisted colonisation, and fought for a freedom that I enjoy today in Ireland.
FREE PALESTINE
AARON ROWEArtists must not be silenced when they speak up for the oppressed.
I have decided to withdraw from my upcoming tour dates with Ed Sheeran.
I stand with Palestine and its people.
-FinneasIt's hard to watch families in other parts of the world burying the people they love.
We should be able to speak about war, about civilians being killed, about children who deserve to grow up. Wherever they live. Whatever flag flies over them.
I grew up in Christiania, a small community in Denmark where speaking your mind was part of everyday life. Having more money didn't make your opinion worth more than anyone else's.
Money doesn't give you the right to own the conversation.
Nobody's bank balance should decide who gets to speak or which suffering we're allowed to acknowledge.
i love Ed, and i'm grateful for everything we've shared. That hasn't changed. But I can't put these words out into the world and carry on with this tour as things stand. We're withdrawing from the remaining dates.
I'm sorry we won't be there. This is a difficult decision, but it's one I need to stand by.

Lukas GrahamWe are Irish people who understand colonialism. As founding members of the Irish Artists For Palestine movement, we are committed activists for justice and will continue to be.
This whole episode is once again serving to distract from the real issue, over 1000 Palestinians have been killed since the most recent so-called ceasefire.
Up the workers.
Free Palestine.

Dedicated to Ed Sheeran: "great lyrics, smooth flows, when the emperor's old gimmick is new clothes. Same old stories, nothing new told. Appear to speak truth but don't be too bold. Your music upsets advertisers. It's about the pay so, what they say goes."
