Dissecting the Casual Racism of “Airplane!”
Airplane! (1980) is a fun spoof comedy with lots of laughs, right? I watched this film for the first time the other night. I loved it. Then came the racist jokes.

I met this sad looking guy sitting near the park. He had a bit of a headache and was definitely not in a good mood. The night before he was partying with friends and lost his phone somewhere. The dude was a bit depressed. His life was going nowhere: he had no job, no girlfriend, no phone, and no idea what to do. I'm sure a girlfriend would cheer him up but, using his own words, he was just terrible with women. I think he simply lacked motivation to try harder. If girls were willing to pay him, he would do much better. I gave him a few thousand crowns and he was all over my cock in no time. We went to my nearby office so my new friend could make enough money to buy a new fancy phone. When we were done, the guy rushed to get out. He probably won't call me for second ride.

Magnolia focuses on how one’s childhood and trauma relate to their confidence and self.
“And I think to myself….what a wonderful world”. Louis Armstrong sang about this notion via his classic 1967 song, an ode to witnessing elements of our life that should be but some reminders of exactly what that concluding line of each verse indicates. Now we see our contemporary realities and, just being honest, it makes a sentiment like this seem SO overtly far away….perhaps even impossible….to accept or believe could be. It sounds harsh, but again, so much of what is occurring speaks not to beauty, but bedlam.
In Tall Girl, Jodi learns to stand tall and find confidence within.
The re-living of this historic trial through this film is relevant to current politics and disturbingly enjoyable to watch due to the excellent performances from the ensemble cast. If you like a juicy courtroom drama, this film will definitely scratch that itch in a really chilling manner.
Emily and Stephanie are back... just add gin and drama.
