I gave a look at the movie nobody seen in cinema this summer called
Red Sonja, because the main character is played by
Matilda Lutz, an
Emilia Clarke look-alike that was very good in a
Coralie Fargeat 2017 film
Revenge. You may know Fargeat from her other film
The Substance. Lutz was so perfect in
Revenge and
Revenge was so good, that I wanted to see more of Lutz. And then the trailer of
Red Sonja dropped, advertising it as a yet another revenge flick, this time set in a medieval fantasy world. So of-course I was hooked.

Natalie Portman is an interesting figure in the world of cinema. And the movie
May December is a meta-analysis of Natalie's psychological journey through Hollywood. It is not a surprise that her first movie Leon: The Professional caused some levels of controversy. It was mainly an action film, so there was not that much controversy. But the dramatic elements of the film were questioned a lot by American audiences. Even Natalie Portman herself, being half-American
described Leon as "cringe". And it seems like the growing obsession with all kind of sexual misconducts in Hollywood together with growing feelings of cringe from Leon made her into needing a movie like
May December to evaluate everything and understand the phenomenon better.
