One hundred eight intros. That’s a lot of Spotlight introductions. What do I say for the 108th one? Maybe this? This is the amazing intro I bring to the table? A pondering of the introduction? A meta-discussion of the need for an introduction? Huh. Okay, let’s let that roll then! And ACTION!
2023.03.24 THE LOST KING
This looks pretty decent. Female, in a field of mansplanners, thinks she understands, and has made an enormous archeological discovery… a find of the century. AKA, the lost burial site of King Richard III. And as a result, she takes on Britain’s most eminent historians, forcing them to rethink the legacy of one of the most controversial rulers in English history. Okay, I’m intrigued. Sounds similar to the Boston Strangler story I just published a review of… women taking on a field of apathetic individuals beholden to a standard system. OK, sounds like a good Rocky movie, but for history buffs!
2023.03.26 RABBIT HOLE
You think you’re shopping for socks. They know who you’re voting for. The job’s already half done. Kiefer Sutherland stars as John Weir in the new series Rabbit Hole, where nothing is what it seems. A master of deception in the world of corporate espionage, Weir must use all the resources at his disposal when he’s framed for murder by powerful forces with the ability to influence and control populations.
