StunnaKrypto

Self-important, over-dramatic, uninspired.

Doomtomylo

a film so unique, intoxicating and bizarre that it not only demands another viewing, but is also forgivable as a satirical comedy where the jokes eventually take the back seat.

The biggest problem with this movie is it’s a little better than you think it might be, which somehow makes it worse. As in, it takes itself a bit too seriously, which makes most of the movie feel kind of dull.

Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable

Haiti: 'Land of Dark Majesty' (1941) ** 1/2 (out of 4) This TravelTalks short takes us to Haiti where we learn that in 1492 Columbus crashed there and is one reason why the majority of people in this Latin American place speak French (for what that's worth). We also learn that the majority of people there are black and that originally the place had been used for trading slaves, which led to a great battle for their freedom. With three million people now there, we learn about the local markets where someone could buy a pound of peas for a penny or be given bananas for free. This is another nice entry in the series with FitzPatrick once again delivering some great narration and keeping the film moving at a nice pace. While watching the film you can't help but feel that a lot of the stuff dealing with the slave days is overlooked to make the U.S. look a tad bit better as they're never mentioned when these days were discussed.
