14 Movies Like The Social Network You Definitely Need To See

It takes a long time for films to establish themselves as cinematic classics, and it often takes several decades to fully realize a film's legacy. As such, few films from the 21st century are already considered classics that'll be worth revisiting generations later. However, if any film of the past two decades will withstand the test of time, it's undoubtedly "The Social Network." Not only is David Fincher's masterful study of the dawn of social media a rich, compelling drama that's highly enter...

In Tom McCarthy's 2007 film "The Visitor," released six years after September 11, 2001, a wall painting of the Twin Towers haunts the ICE detention center.

Der „Jennifer-Lawrence-Effekt“ & Hollywoods absurde Erwartungen an Frauen

Jennifer Lawrence ist wieder da. Die Oscar-Gewinnerin, die einst Hollywoods selbstironisches Kronjuwel war, ist in den vergangenen Jahren ein bisschen in der Versenkung verschwunden. Jetzt tritt sie langsam zurück ins Rampenlicht – angefangen mit ihrem neuen Film Don’t Look Up. Und im ersten großen Interview seit ihrem bewussten Rückzug aus der Öffentlichkeit wird klar: Die Last der öffentlichen Meinung hat ganz schön an Lawrences Selbstbewusstsein gekratzt. „Ich glaube, alle hatten mic...

"Think of the other narratives the MSM pushed in recent years that have collapsed. They viciously defamed the Covington boys."

"They authoritatively told us that bounties had been placed on US soldiers in Afghanistan by Putin—and Trump’s denials only made them more certain. They told us that the lab-leak theory of Covid was a conspiracy theory with no evidence behind it at all. (The NYT actually had the story of the leak theory, by Donald McNeil, killed it, and then fired McNeil, their best Covid reporter, after some schoolgirls complained he wasn’t woke.) Wrong. Wrong. Wrong. The MSM took the ludicrous story of Jussie...
