Do you guys ever wonder if there's a hackie not being sacked because of you
While most of us watch multiple films a year, if not every single week, the annual number of movies produced each year is staggering. In the US alone, in 2022, there were 1,691 films produced and released. Unless you devote every single day to watching 3 to four films a day, you will simply never be able to see them all.
And this is just in the US. That same year, India put out a staggering 1,361 films, while Mexico came in third, with 1,289 productions. While you absolutely should explore the cinematic work of other countries, it can be a bit overwhelming, when you realize that most countries have been putting out movies from before we were born.

This Is The Last Photo Taken Of Hachikō, A Japanese Akita Dog Remembered For His Unwavering Loyalty To His Owner
Hachikō belonged to Professor Eizaburo Ueno who lived in Shibuya and taught at Tokyo Imperial University during the early 1920s. Every day, Ueno would walk to Shibuya Station with Hachikō and take the train to work. Once he was done for the day, he would take the train back and return to the station at precisely 3 PM. Hachikō would always be there waiting patiently to accompany the professor home. One day, Ueno suffered a stroke and never arrived at the station. Hachikō went to the station every day for 9 years until his death in 1935.

Akita's (both Japanese and American) are a loyal breed. Helen Keller heard about Hachiko when she was in Japan on an extended speaking tour. She was gifted a male Akita Kamikazi (Kami for short). Unfortunately, Kami died at eight months old of distemper. The Japanese government was saddened that Helen lost her beloved Kami and sent another, Kenzan-Go, from the same sire and dame. Helen nicknamed him "Go-Go".

The Akita is VERY loyal. We lived with a friend who have a 14 y/o male Akita named "Countasch", we called him Tash. My daughter LOVED this dog (as did we all) but asked, since she was half Japanese would he know to protect her? She was 6. We tested him. She went into the alley behind the garage and screamed , that scream only little girls can do. We heard "Whomp, whomp, whomp" and Tash was in the alley will bristles up, looking for his baby. He covered 25 yards in about 5 seconds. My daughter loved all over him for being such a good protector. We didn't realize he had arthritis and was suffering or we would have never tried it. He had to be put down about 6 months later. I have never cried so much for a dog in my life.

And yet most people will totally fail to understand the significance of why the film needs to be started 2 hours, 46 minutes, and 19 seconds before midnight.
However, in terms of pure revenue, no one comes even close to North America. The combined US and Canadian box office market was 25.9 billion dollars in 2022, over three times larger than its closest competitor, the European Union ($7.4 billion in 2022.) For better or worse, this is why cinema and Hollywood are roughly synonymous.

Killers of the Flower Moon is a great film.

Indeed, while many local film productions do suffer from an influx of (predominantly) American films, it’s a testament to just how popular cinema is as a mass-market art form. Economists see the movie industry as incredibly competitive, a winner-take-all bloodbath between production companies. After all, while people will go to many films over a course of a year, it’s not that common to see more than one a day or even a week.

One of my favourite movies. There is so much in it that can also be applied to life in general outside those walls. Every time I watch it I pick up on/learn something new.
Unfortunately, this is also one of the reasons so many films now are remakes, sequels, prequels, or otherwise related to an existing property. If you don’t believe me, find the movie lineup of your nearest cinema and count how many feature films are truly new and untried stories or concepts.

However, the flip side of this volatility is that smaller, often independent production companies can pull off smash hits if they release the right product at the right time. This uncertainty does at least push companies to make something new, albeit after they have exhausted their catalog of existing IPs.

Uniquely, at least in the United States, the majority of workers in Hollywood are part of a union, from writers, all the way to production staff, like camera operators, grips, set designers, and other, intrinsic parts of moviemaking. The International Alliance of Theatrical Stage Employees (IATSE) has over 150,000 members, for example, making it larger than most large companies.

The "Kiss Of Death" (In Italian, "Il Bacio Della Morte") Is A Sign Used In The Mafia That Signifies That A Member Of The Crime Family Has Been Marked For Death, Commonly As A Result Of Betrayal
GraphicHealer 2 years ago
Interesting. I can think of a scene from the Bible where this would apply. The moment where Judas reveals who Jesus is to the high priests. For all I know, that may be where the idea came from.
Quinn 2 years ago
Except, Jesus already knew he was going to be betrayed, and may have even known who the betrayer was going to be (though the text doesn't explicitly support this latter part). Furthermore, Jesus' life wasn't taken from him so much as he was willingly laying down his life.

The kiss of death (Italian: Il bacio della morte) is the sign given by a mafioso boss or caporegime that signifies that a member of the crime family has been marked for death, usually as a result of some perceived betrayal.[1] It is unclear how much is based on fact and how much on the imagination of authors, but it remains a cultural meme[2][3] and appears in literature and films.

Similarly, the Screen Actors Guild (SAG), recently in the news for its largely successful writers strike, has around 130,000 members. This allows the actual workforce of Hollywood to protect itself and employ collective bargaining to make sure production companies don’t end up exploiting the thousands of folks involved in the movies we love.

As massive as these numbers sound, they should underscore just how many people are actually involved in the production of a major film. Setting aside the cast and crew, who can number in the hundreds, there is a vast ocean of auxiliary staff and cottage industries all around filmmaking, from accountants specializing in film accounting to camera repair folks.

Mol may be gone, but he has his children with him at last. He feels peace at last. Accepting that made me feel so much better. Whew.

Honestly the truth is he is awake and he does return home. If you compare the children in the end scene to the children in his dreams, the children in the end are older and their clothing is different. He also is not wearing his wedding ring which he always is when he is in the dream state because, as the movie says, in his dreams him and Mal are still together.
