"Desert Warrior": Just Watch It
While everyone was going gaga over The Odyssey, Desert Warrior was quietly taking audiences on an epic Arabian “knights of the sand table” adventure

At the age of 19, Violette Nozière was sentenced to death for parricide. Abused by her father, her voice went unheard. She was released in 1945. She married and rebuilt her life in Normandy. And she fought to clear her name without telling her children anything about her past. This film is an opportunity for them to search for their mother's words.

The fun tricks used in the production design and lighting read extremely well on-screen but hardly fulfill their purpose of trying to inject glamour into a lack-luster story with nothing to say.
Elio could be seen as fantastic piece of representation, showing lonely children who feel ostracized that they are not alone. That is, unless you look behind the curtain.
"Abominable" is an exciting story for children and a great step forward for positive Asian representation.
I think these messages and the way they are presented in this small-town in Texas are increasingly more important as the internet/ social media becomes more and more critical and judgemental every day. Love yourself today and every day because as Ru Paul always says: “If you can’t love yourself, how in the hell are you gonna love someone else?”
