The Last Duel: Examining Modern Rape Culture in Medieval Times
The Last Duel is about rape. Although the film delves into rape culture in medieval Europe, there are many striking similarities to modern rape culture.

In order to attend the theater performance Alisa (Irish Bella) goes to the house of his brother Anton (Fadika Royandi) and his wife Santi (Nafa Urbach). In the house Alisa meets Tania (Richelle Georgette Skonicki), the adopted daughter of Anton and Siska. Alisa immediately realized the weirdness of Tania's mysterious attitude. Alisa sees Tania eating magnolia flowers in her room. Terrors begin to strike Alisa, until the appearance of a mysterious man Toro (Dorman Borisman) who reminds him not to approach Tania. Encouraged by her curiosity, Alisa begins to find out the origin of Tania. She is accompanied by Aldy (Kevin Kambey), Alisa’s in the theater, to an orphanage. There they meet Novi (Sarwendah) the owner of the orphanage. Novi reveals to the dark past of Tania. Alisa moves to carry out dangerous missions.

Steven Soderbergh’s Contagion is a fan-favorite, as are some of the more science fiction angled movies like 28 Days Later or World War Z. I recently watched the 1995 Wolfgang Peterson-directed movie, Outbreak for the first time, which is currently available on Netflix.
As many of us know, Marvel Studios has taken an interest in women-led superhero films, but some of us are oblivious to the women behind the camera and pen.
Deborah (Jean Smart) and Ava (Hannah Einbinder) are a delight to watch evolve, sometimes devolve, then evolve again.
It took writers D.B Weiss and David Benioff two years to give us a promising final season. Two. Years. It was just going to be six episodes, which was short considering that all the other seasons — except season 7 — were 10 episodes. 10. 6 wasn’t enough, and even HBO wanted to give the writers more episodes. More seasons, even. However, the writers wanted to get out of the show as quickly as possible to work on other projects. This abruptness is clearly shown in this season.
If you mix religious rituals with dark mythology, the result will be effective, and the story powerful in 90% of the cases. That is exactly what happens at the beginning of The Vigil.
