Not enough people are talking about Mr. Loverman on bbc. This show has:

Two elderly black men in love

Tale about internalized homophobia

Caribbean culture in England and in Antigua

Family dynamics and intergenerational relations

Great acting

A touching story

Is based on a book (I haven't read it yet, but I heard great things)

I won't tell you more because I don't want to spoil it.

Granted, it's not a perfect show, but it is sweet and you should definitely give it a try.

A democratic civilization will save itself only if it makes the language of the image into a stimulus for critical reflection — not an invitation for hypnosis.

1970s.

Ah, those were the days...

...not that we were there, of course. But we can sure as sugar pretend: listen to dusty vinyl records, grow our hair in all manner of styles, write on typewriters, watch films from the innovative "New Hollywood" directors such as Martin Scorsese, Stanley Kubrick, Mike Nichols, Elaine May, Barbara Kopple, and Francis Ford Coppola if we're feeling artistic, neigh, intellectual (or sit down with Star Wars, Jaws, Rocky, and Saturday Night Fever if we're not), go to a lot of protests, recall our most grisly, harrowing memories from 'Nam, wear high-waisted trousers, and try to sneak into Fleetwood Mac's ever destructive, irresistibly sexy inter-band drama. 

In short, there was a lot happening in the 1970s, or indeed, the #70s, all of it big, bold, colorful, yet earthy, and very often brilliant. It was a decade of immense cultural, political, and societal change, much of it for the better, and much of it that, at the very least, continues in spirit to our own day. The 70s is not such a period of time, indeed, but a state of mind.

Outwardly weird pop culture is fascinating, but nothing's like looking at some piece of extremely mundane-seeming media and being told it's secretly unhinged.

"It's a hunting game." Sounds boring. "It's a hunting game with a story where you massacre entire herds of animals, who seem to be on a psychic quest to kill you personally." Well

I think the king of this is Passions, which sounds like the most generic soap opera ever, but has a cast full of witches, warlocks, and animate dolls, and takes place in the same universe as Bewitched for no reason, and that has a plot where the entire cast goes to the Vatican for the summer to hunt for the Pope's magic chalice. I mocked it when they started showing it on the Sci-Fi Channel but no, it totally belonged
