Minority Mindset

Few films achieve the same level of deliberate confusion as Primer, placing it among a select group of both classic and modern, independent sci-fi movies. These films, which cover themes from technological boundaries to the vastness of space, offer a distinctive experience that continues to fascinate audiences. Some intentionally challenge viewers with their complexity, while others are simply so unconventional that they leave a lasting, puzzling impression.

The drama starts to ease up when the group visits the first of two wineries. Everyone is talking about resolving their issues, and it seems like progress is being made – Venus and Marcus are friends again, and Kim is overjoyed to have reconciled with Natalie, even bursting into tears. Jason attempts a similar reconciliation with Angelica, but she reveals in a private interview that she’s still deeply uncomfortable with him and his twin brother, knowing their shared history. This brief moment of positivity is quickly overshadowed when Angelica, during a group photo, condescendingly calls Jason “little man” – a classic example of her passive-aggressive behavior. She often makes seemingly playful comments that are actually intended to be hurtful, masking her meanness as a joke. She repeats this pattern later, joking that her broken hair straightener is “limp like Shayne’s,” another attempt to shame someone with a disguised insult.

Let’s talk about the new contestants before I put off discussing the drama with Kymanda any longer! We’ve met four people so far who all seem really interesting. There’s KJ, who’s a model and skateboarder; Bailey, a host and influencer; Ben, a model, entrepreneur, Australian, and former star of The Bachelor; and Levi, an event planner. It’s a little sad that Levi is the only one without multiple professions listed, and it makes me think about what they’d even call me if I were on a reality show. Would it be Brian, journalist/retired heartthrob? Brian, the one who loves to talk trash and eat snacks? Or Brian, the writer who says he’s versatile but is actually into being submissive?

New images have been released offering a first look at Apple TV+’s reimagining of Martin Scorsese’s classic thriller, Cape Fear. The series stars Javier Bardem as Max Cady, a dangerous criminal seeking revenge on his former lawyer, Tom Bowden (Patrick Wilson), and Bowden’s wife, Anna (Amy Adams), after being released from prison.
