My publisher, Authentic Media, and I have been collaborating on various projects over the last few months, which is why this website has been fairly quiet.

RONDA ROUSEY’S STORY: THROUGH MY FATHER’S EYES (2016)

GENRE : DOCUMENTARY

Written and directed by the former ex-international boxing champion Gary Stretch, the documentary tells the story of Ronda Rousey, the first female UFC (Ultimate Fighting Championship) champion of the world. The film isn’t perfect, the lighting is often off, the music is cheesy and the interviews may seem kind of amateurish sometimes, but it remains very moving and is the only film about Ronda. Known for being a very feminine and attractive woman, the film goes deeper than just showing a beautiful girl that can throw a punch. It portrays a very smart, determined and hard-working athlete that made her name in a male-dominated field and certainly didn’t have it easy growing up. Her first breath was a struggle to survive, as Ronda was born with her umbilical cord wrapped around her neck. For a split second, Ronda stopped breathing, but her will to survive made her fight for her life. The incident was so impactful that for six years, Ronda couldn’t speak properly. Only her sister understood her mumbled words. She became a very frustrated, self-deprecating girl, who was in her own little world and could only depend on herself.

When she was only eight, her father, whom she was very close to, committed suicide. Indeed, he found out he had a fatal degenerative disease that was going to weaken him to death, and didn’t want his three daughters to see him weak. At the same time, Ronda took up judo and was noticeably better than the other girls. She developed her own style and her mother took her to an all-Armenian men mixed martial arts gym, where she got tougher and tougher. She learned from the best and trained with bigger and stronger men than her. At only 21, she won a bronze medal in the Olympics in judo, came back, struggled with homelessness, started MMA at a time when Dana White, the UFC President said no women will ever fight in his MMA organization. Two years later, he made Ronda the main event at her first pro UFC fight. She won within 50 seconds with her famous arm-bar.

The documentary is very intimate and touching, but still inspiring, because we really dig deep to understand how Ronda finds her mental strength and sense of discipline. The film was available on Netflix until recently, but can still be found on streaming websites.

A discussion of Le sixième jour, which Chahine dedicates to Gene Kelly as a thank you for having filled his youth with joy. A rare Chahine film that is centred on a female star, female desire and female self-actualisation in a patriarchal culture. A hybrid of a woman’s film and musical. It’s set during a cholera pandemic, which resonates with the present, and also features a story of the unrequited love of a 26 year old street performer for an unhappy and much older housewife, one that still feels transgressive. Richard loved it very much. I less so. But we agree that it remains essential viewing for fans of Dalida and Youssef Chahine.

Those of you who don’t know of Dalida, the star, might be interested in this BBC radio documentary: https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p04tmx5c?fbclid=IwAR2L6lzcVgBUR75eh8i6PE7UuhZy-VPZRK9K0BIoCfB4HVFF809WGGWnWlE

Those of you who speak French, might be interested in this fascinating interview with Dalida for Radio France. Celebrated film critic Serge Daney is the interviewer: https://www.franceculture.fr/emissions/les-nuits-de-france-culture/dalida-la-psychanalyse-ma-beaucoup-aidee-a-comprendre-le-personnage-de-saddika-dans-le-sixieme-jour-0?fbclid=IwAR33tJBDh9ViQuU2Szmf5kkf7M1_ME1VulrWHZwxrCqte-oVDK5iNfQ3vCg

Prizzi’s Honor (1985) – *** I really wonder what was going on with the awards groups in 1985. Giving Out of Africa the Oscar and Drama Globe for Best Picture (and a lot more besides) is bad enough, but Prizzi’s Honor was right on its heels, winning the Globes for Director and Musical/Comedy Picture, Actor, and Actress, winning the BAFTA and WGA for Adapted Screenplay, winning the NYFCC for…
