    ★★★★

    Somewhere, a billionaire is jerking off to the sight of women singing and dancing in celebration of the virtues of lean manufacturing. We truly are all one.

    God this movie hits hard. I forgot just how harrowing of a watch it is. Rena Owen's performance is truly inspiring and Temuera Morrison terrifies. Very successful in its depiction of the effects of colonialism on Māori culture. The violence, while hard to watch, never feels gratuitous. I'll be thinking about this one for a while.

    ★★★★

    Trading Places teaches us that achieving the American Dream is a lot less about hard work and pulling yourself up by your bootstraps and a lot more about not being born poor. 

    Class mobility is a myth and the stock market is nothing more than a random number generator. None of it means anything. 

    The notion that rich white men would ever face the consequences of their actions requires a significant suspension of disbelief, but it's worth it.
