233. Best Picture Showcase '25: I'M STILL HERE dir. Walter Salles

If you routinely listen to the podcast, you've likely heard me say that art comes to you when you need it. So, is it mere coincidence that I wrap last year's Best Picture Showcase with I'M STILL HERE, a movie wherein a woman's husband is forcibly disappeared by a military dictatorship for the "crime" of assisting folks who criticize the government's policies, at a time when ICE kidnaps both undocumented immigrants and American citizens off of the streets, placing them in holding cells for endless questioning and processing, performing underreported amounts of atrocities to them?No. I really don't fucking think so.---Follow The Movies on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ & ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Letterboxd⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Throw a couple dollars in the ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠tip jar!
