Short Film: 'The Other Side' Examines Poverty in Mumbai—“People like you don’t belong here”
In this short film, writer/director Nikita Hattangady focuses on Jai, a starving artist rooted in the latter category. Though unhoused, he works hard.

Some girls are quite happy to enjoy a bit of gentle, vanilla sex but not these horned-up sluts. In fact, the likes of Elise and Sharon arent really satisfied unless theyre getting their share of some of the hottest, roughest action that man has ever devised; taking inch after inch of hard dick in every single hole that nature has blessed them with. Mouths, cunts, asses they dont care, so long as its BBC and its banging them like its going out of fashion. They wouldnt be doing this for tiny white boys, thats for sure; but when its black and the size of someones wrist theyre more than content to take it time and time again. All of which results in a tidal wave of black baby brew that almost washes these bitches away as a result!

The biggest highlight of the film is easily the performance of Andrew Garfield. In his days since hanging up his Spiderman suit, Garfield has routinely churned out great performances, and Mainstream is no exception. He proves that he is willing to try anything and go anywhere in a character.
I didn’t love Expecting Amy, the mini-series following Amy Schumer’s pregnancy, but it brought up a lot of great unspoken side-effects of working and growing a human in America.
“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.
