The topic of this month's Re-Animate THIS! podcast episode (along with I Saw the TV Glow). The poster of We're All Going to the World's Fair. Jay Whang on Letterboxd gave it 4.5 stars out of 5.

The information part of the Wikipedia page on Ukraine on Fire, a pro-Putin propaganda piece directed by Igor Lopatonok, which portrays a Kremlin-friendly version of the events that led to the flight of Yanukovych in February 2014 as a coup d'état orchestrated by the United States with the help of far-right Ukrainian factions. The film poster has American filmmaker Oliver Stone, who is also the executive producer, in the center alongside Russian political figures (including Russian president Vladimir Putin) on both sides. It is written by Vanessa Dean, produced by Igor Lopatonok, and starring Oliver Stone, Vladimir Putin, Victor Yanukovich (disgraced former president of Ukraine), Vitaly Zakharchenko, and Robert Parry. The production company behind this piece is Another Way Productions, who also distributed it with Cinema Libre Studio. Lex Lang has also provided a voice-over narration of this piece, which I circled in red.

“We saw the various articles on ‘Ambersons’ today. In general, the estate has embraced AI technology to create a voice model intended to be used for VO work with brands. That said, this attempt to generate publicity on the back of Welles’ creative genius is disappointing, especially as we weren’t even given the courtesy of a heads up,” a spokesperson for the Welles estate wrote. “While AI is inevitable, it still cannot replace the creative instincts resident in the human mind, which means this effort to make Ambersons whole will be a purely mechanical exercise without any of the uniquely innovative thinking or a creative force like Welles.”

Grave of the Fireflies 1988 Japan There are amazing gems among animation films, but the mastery with which Takahada manages to convey the complexity of life, its fragile and brief beauty and the emotions of its drawn characters, is extraordinary. It’s also one of the most haunting, heart-wrenching and profound tales ever told about war. The magical and elegiac moments of natural beauty and childish delight make the tragedy even more harrowing. It makes me weep in a way that no other film does.
