There are a few thing certainties you can count on in movies. If it's an Adam Sandler movie, there'll be at least one fart joke. If it's a Jason Statham movie, there'll be at least one dude getting a limb broken and plenty of punching. This week's movie “A Working Man” that bill. Statham plays Levon Cade, who used to be an elite military operator, but now tries to make an honest living as a working man in construction. He works for land developer Joe Garcia, played by Michael Pena, who knows what he used to do. When Joe's daughter is kidnapped, he pleads to Levon to find and return her. Levon has a young daughter himself, so he can feel this father's pain and agrees. That decision lights the fuse on a bloody mission to find the girl. The human traffickers responsible for taking her, have no idea who is on their trail. Levon makes them very aware of who's hunting them, one by one. Levon has to intimidate, go undercover and just plain go on all-out frontal assaults as part of his quest. Is it worth going to the theater to find out how it all ends? Watch this episode to find out. “A Working Man” also stars Jason Flemyng, Merab Ninidze, Maximilian Osinski, Cokey Falkow, David Harbour, Noemi Gonzalez, Arianna Rivas, Isla Gie, Emmett J Scanlan and Eve Mauro.Support the showFeel free to reach out to me via:@MoviesMerica on Twitter @moviesmerica on InstagramMovies Merica on Facebook

Aug-Heist rolls on with a return to the mean streets of London! Following Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels, director Guy Ritchie goes back to the well of the seedy underworld of British tough guys with this year 2000 release. Several LS2SB actors come back as well, including Jason Statham, Vinnie Jones, Jason Flemyng, Alan Ford, and the film adds some non-Brits, too, with Brad Pitt, Dennis Farina, and Benico del Toro in the mix. Clearly following the "if it ain't broke, bloke, don't fix it, innit" rule, Ritchie hews closely to the formula of his previous film, but the film was a success both critically and commercial. Audiences ate up Snatch, but when Beef and Rum Daddy sink their teeth into it, anything can happen. Note: Lobster the Mobster (A.K.A. Jonny Two Claws A.K.A. The Singing Shellfish A.K.A. The Crusty Caucasian) is still in Witness Protection as of this recording.    For more geeky podcasts visit GonnaGeek.com   You can find us on iTunes under ''Legends Podcast''.

Watching our first-ever vampire movie. Eat Locals is a horr-medy from the #UK with lots of gun fire and several vampires reduced to nothing butt dust. The vampires than run the British Isles have a meeting to coordinate their way of life. Turns out, one of them has been doing stuff they shouldn't, so they have to kill the guy. Enter Sebastian, a regular human who gets a chance to join their little troupe. Unfortunately, vamp in-fighting, and a small army of vampire hunters short-circuits his pledge/initiation process. Now this plucky gang of the undead have to fight their way out by sunrise. Eat Locals final grade: Steve had a hard time following the characters for a bit, but enjoyed the movie overall. Another movie trying to do a little too much balancing on the Horror vs Comedy line. Also had little too much slapstick, but the acting was good and Jason Flemyng showed promise as a director. 3.9/5.0 Brandon another "perfectly fine" movies that demonstrates competent acting, cinematography and production quality. Some good British humor and physical comedy. Unfortunately for Eat Locals, being in this streak of movies that are done professionally actually works against them. 3.41/5 Cocktail of the Week: Shrunken Skull 1 oz Demerara Rum 1 oz Light Rum 1 oz Fresh-Squeezed Lime Juice 1 oz oz Fancy Grenadine, not the Rose's Brand garbage Shake all ingredients in a cocktail shaker with ice. Strain over ice in a rocks glass. No garnish required. Cocktail Grade: A sweet cocktail that packs a punch. Definitely would not be as good with a lower-quality grenadine, so click the link to see how Steve made it. 4.78/5 https://youtu.be/CvEDhkR6K14?si=9axLXWGD3NZ2E7sE&t=239 ------------------ Contact us with feedback or cocktail/movie recommendations to: boozeandbmovies@gmail.com X: @boozeandbmovies Instagram: @boozeandbmovies Threads: @boozeandbmovies www.facebook.com/boozeandbmovies --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/boozeandbmovies/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/boozeandbmovies/support

Tune in as Sean (Review It Yourself) jumps into the guest chair for a review and recap of X-Men: First Class, the 2011 soft reboot (until it got retconned by 2014's X-Men: Days of Future Past) of the X-Men superhero film franchise. A few of the talking points that Arthur and Sean cover are mutation flirtation, James McAvoy donning some hair extensions, the movie completely wasting Darwin and his versatile ability, and the development that goes into Charles and Erik's character arcs and their clashing outlooks. Directed by Matthew Vaughn, X-Men: First Class stars James McAvoy, Michael Fassbender, Kevin Bacon, Rose Byrne, Jennifer Lawrence, Nicholas Hoult, Lucas Till, January Jones, Jason Flemyng, Caleb Landry Jones, Zoë Kravitz, Edi Gathegi, Álex González, Oliver Platt, Matt Craven, Laurence Belcher, Bill Milner, Morgan Lily, Corey Johnson, Glenn Morshower, James Remar, Annabelle Wallis, and Michael Ironside.

Later on, Ted Lasso star Nick Mohammed popped in to chat about his latest theatre escapades as Mr Swallow.

With Guy Richie's stand out Snatch!---Join our Patreon for a quid a month and we'll treat you to a shoutout/abuse in every episode! www.patreon.co.uk/100things---Snatch (stylized as snatch.) is a 2000 British-American crime comedy film written and directed by Guy Ritchie, featuring an ensemble cast. Set in the London criminal underworld, the film contains two intertwined plots: one dealing with the search for a stolen diamond, the other with a small-time boxing promoter (Jason Statham) who finds himself under the thumb of a ruthless gangster (Alan Ford) who is ready and willing to have his subordinates carry out severe and sadistic acts of violence.The film features an assortment of characters, including Irish Traveller "One Punch" Mickey O'Neil (Brad Pitt), referred to as a "Pikey", Russian arms-dealer Boris "the Blade" Yurinov (Rade Šerbedžija), professional thief and gambling addict Franky "Four-Fingers" (Benicio del Toro), American gangster-jeweller Abraham Denovitz known as "Cousin Avi" (Dennis Farina), small-time crooks Sol (Lennie James) and Vinny (Robbie Gee), getaway driver Tyrone (Ade), and bounty hunter Bullet-Tooth Tony (Vinnie Jones). It is also distinguished by a kinetic direction and editing style, an intricate double plot featuring numerous ironic twists of chance and causality, and a fast pace.The film shares themes, ideas, and motifs with Ritchie's first film, Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels. It is also filmed in the same visual style and features many of the same actors, including Vinnie Jones, Jason Statham, Jason Flemyng, and Alan Ford.

#AnyaLahiri #Barrysbootcamp #barrys On this week's show we have one of Britain's top fitness instructors Anya Lahiri.  You only have to open a glossy magazine to find Lahiri listed as one of most sort after, elite fitness instructors in the UK today and during lockdown thousands of people tuned in worldwide to take her instagram live classes.  Lahiri was also instrumental in bringing high-intensity, fitness studio phenomenon Barry's Bootcamp to the UK.  With its latest studio about to open in Liverpool it is difficult to imagine the leap of faith it took on Lahiri's part to bring Barry's to the UK after taking a class in LA and even harder to imagine that there was ever time when a landlord might have been hesitant to rent them a space to create studio.  We caught up with Lahiri to talk about life in general, Barry's, her acting  career and the time she represented Britain at Eurovision as part of the girl group Precious.   As a little side note for her wikipedia page, not many people know that Lahiri also turned in a very funny performance as a senior centre's fitness instructor in the second half of the comedy film Great in Britain: The Movie.  She gives a great comedic performance in movie that also stars the late, great Peter Bowles, Jason Flemyng,  Ted Lasso's Hannah Waddingham, Colin Salmon, Ben Starr and a cast of great British talent.  https://greatinbritainmovie.com/

9 de enero | Alcoy, AlicanteHola, maricoper. Año electoral, lesfgo.Leer esta newsletter te llevará 17 minutos y 58 segundos.Si tienes Fitbit, piensa en lo que realmente llevas en la muñeca. Bienvenido a La Wikly.Lo importante: 2022 es año de elecciones de medio mandato en Estados Unidos, lo que significa que el presidente Joe Biden y sus aliados demócratas se enfrentan a la primera gran reválida de la nueva administración.Y aunque todavía faltan 10 meses para la cita electoral, 2022 no podría haber empezado peor para ellos por culpa de la ola ómicron y una situación económica peliaguda con motivo de la inflación y la continuada crisis en la cadena de suministro.Explícamelo: en las elecciones de medio mandato, los 435 escaños de la Cámara de Representantes, al menos 34 del Senado y 36 gubernaturas estarán en disputa en las urnas el próximo 8 de noviembre.Es decir, que tanto las mayorías de las cámaras legislativas de Washington D.C. como las casas del gobernador de estados tan importantes como Florida, California, Texas o Georgia están en juego este año.Contexto: las elecciones de medio mandato suelen ser una cita difícil para el partido que ocupa la Casa Blanca, especialmente si ese mismo partido también tiene mayoría en las cámaras legislativas y la situación económica genera incertidumbre entre el electorado.En 1994, en las primeras elecciones de medio mandato de Bill Clinton, la Revolución Republicana liderada por Newt Gingrich recuperó el poder de la Cámara de Representantes por primera vez desde 1952 tras arrebatarle 54 escaños a los demócratas.En 2006, en las segundas elecciones de medio mandato de George W. Bush, los demócratas recuperaron el poder de ambas cámaras federales con motivo del desafecto de la ciudadanía con la gestión de Bush del desastre desencadenado por el huracán Katrina y las guerras de Irak y Afganistán.En 2010, en las primeras elecciones de medio mandato de Barack Obama, los republicanos recuperaron el control de la Cámara de Representantes con nuevas victorias en 63 escaños en plena recuperación económica tras la crisis de 2008, el punto álgido de la ola Tea Party y las críticas a Obamacare.En 2018, en las primeras elecciones de medio mandato de Donald Trump, los demócratas recuperaron el control de la Cámara de Representantes con nuevas victorias en 41 nuevos escaños tras aprovechar la baja popularidad de Trump y los esfuerzos republicanos por tumbar Obamacare.¿Y ahora? En esta newsletter, vamos a ahondar en cinco de las carreras que decidirán el control de las cámaras y de dos casas de gobernador en un año clave para el futuro de la administración de Biden, quien podría pasarse los dos últimos años antes de las próximas presidenciales sin opciones de aprobar proyectos legislativos ambiciosos.Una derrota contundente podría apartar a los demócratas del poder durante al menos un lustro, quizá una década, con lo que estas cinco elecciones presentan una ventana perfecta al futuro del partido demócrata.Una derrota leve podría hacer que los republicanos replanteen su estrategia de apostarlo todo al expresidente Trump, que todavía no ha confirmado si intentará volver a ganar la presidencia en 2024.🍑 Georgia: la revanchaLo importante: con las elecciones a gobernador, Georgia promete ser un escenario que ponga a prueba el nivel de influencia que mantiene el trumpismo en las filas republicanas, así como la habilidad de los demócratas para aprovechar una crisis entre sus oponentes. El estado ya fue clave en los últimos comicios federales:Primero, por consolidar una victoria demócrata en las presidenciales por tan solo 12,000 votos de diferencia.Y segundo, por otorgar la victoria en segunda vuelta a los senadores demócratas Jon Ossoff y Raphael Warnock en las carreras que definieron la mayoría demócrata en la cámara alta.Los candidatos: Brian Kemp, actual gobernador republicano del estado, es el principal candidato. Sin embargo, se presenta a la reelección en condiciones muy diferentes a las de su candidatura en 2018, principalmente debido a que Trump se opone a su reelección.La relación entre Kemp y el expresidente dinamitó después de que el gobernador se negase a cuestionar los resultados de las elecciones presidenciales en Georgia. Trump ha afirmado en público que Kemp "ha sido un completo y total desastre para la integridad de las elecciones".Según Morning Consult, la aprobación de Kemp entre los republicanos de Georgia sufrió una caída destacada tras los ataques de Trump: del 88 por ciento en noviembre al 73 por ciento en enero.Como si esto no fuera poco, Trump ha apoyado la candidatura del republicano David Perdue, el mismo que perdió la banca en el Senado contra Ossoff a principios de 2021.Perdue apoya las acusaciones de Trump sobre la ilegitimidad de los resultados de los comicios de 2020, afirmando que de haber sido gobernador de Georgia no habría certificado los resultados del estado. También se unió a una demanda que impugna los resultados de las elecciones de 2020 en Georgia citando acusaciones desacreditadas de fraude electoral.En el frente demócrata, la candidata Stacey Abrams es la gran favorita. En 2018, fue derrotada por Kemp por un margen mínimo de votos. No parece que vaya a tener un rival fuerte en las primarias demócratas, por lo que será la candidata azul con suma probabilidad.El foco: para muchos analistas políticos, la grieta dentro del partido republicano puede convertirse en un escenario sumamente beneficioso para Abrams, abriendo la posibilidad a que se convierta en la primera gobernadora negra del estado.El antagonismo de Trump con Kemp promete ser uno de los factores decisivos en la carrera a la gubernatura, especialmente si Kemp gana las primarias y Trump sigue atacándole de cara a las generales contra Abrams.🏜 Texas: ¿es diferente?Lo importante: los demócratas volverán a poner ojos y recursos en el estado de Texas tras sufrir derrotas decepcionantes allí en 2018 y 2020. ¿La esperanza? La baja popularidad del gobernador republicano actual y la candidatura repetida del hombre que les permitió soñar hace ya cuatro años.Pero Texas sigue manteniendo una tendencia conservadora que se ha visto amplificada en las zonas rurales pro-Trump y un voto latino marcadamente menos demócrata que hace un lustro. Ningún demócrata ha ganado allí a nivel estatal desde 1994.Los candidatos: Greg Abbott es el gobernador republicano actual. Su popularidad se ha desmoronado con motivo de su gestión de la pandemia o de la crisis energética derivada de la tormenta invernal del pasado febrero.Las iniciativas legislativas para prohibir de facto el aborto o permitir la portación de armas sin licencia tampoco han ayudado. Son medidas muy polémicas en partes del estado como Austin y Dallas, repletas de familias proaborto; o El Paso, donde un tirador acabó con la vida de 23 personas en 2019.El foco: al ser el estado más poblado de la nación tras California y el más vasto en superficie tras Alaska, Texas cuenta con una diversidad demográfica interesantísima para cualquier análisis electoral. Para las elecciones de medio mandato, tres focos se hacen imprescindibles:El Valle del Río Grande y la frontera con México viraron hacia Trump de forma destacada en noviembre de 2020, con lo que cualquier movimiento que afiance o mejore esas ganancias puede ser visto como un aviso de peligro futuro para los demócratas, que han perdido terreno entre los latinos en casi todo el país.Los suburbs de las grandes ciudades de Austin, Houston y Dallas-Fort Worth viraron en cambio hacia los demócratas a partir de 2018 en la conocida como revolución de los suburbs.El crecimiento exponencial de esas regiones, sumada a la migración poblacional desde estados más progresistas como California, podría suponer un duro revés para las posibilidades de Abbott.Las zonas rurales del centro y del oeste de Texas se hicieron en 2020 si cabe más republicanas, dejando a los demócratas casi sin representación en algunas de las regiones más profundas del estado. Dejar de perder terreno ahí es determinante para una victoria demócrata.⛏ Pennsylvania: batalla ideológicaLo importante: la carrera por el escaño senatorial de Pennsylvania que deja vacante el senador republicano Pat Toomey es de particular interés debido a que su resultado podría alterar las reglas de juego en la cámara alta.La mayoría demócrata en el Senado está apenas asegurada con el voto de la vicepresidenta, Kamala Harris, que desempata el órgano con 50 senadores azules y 50 senadores rojos. Los candidatos: más de una veintena de candidatos han presentado documentos federales para postularse en 2022 a la carrera senatorial de Pennsylvania, lo que implica unas primarias muy concurridas y sin un favoritismo exacerbado de ningún candidato.La elección pinta un tanto caótica debido a que los republicanos no prepararon un sucesor claro para Toomey y a que los demócratas todavía están lidiando con una lucha interna entre las facciones progresista y centrista del partido.Los candidatos: en las primarias republicanas destacan figuras como Mehmet Oz, Kathy Barnette, Jeff Bartos, Sean Gale o Carla Sands. La campaña de Sean Parnell, un exoficial militar apoyado por Trump, parecía prometedora hasta que se vio obligado a abandonar después de que las denuncias de su exesposa por abuso físico a ella y a sus hijos le costaran la custodia de los mismos.Candidatos como Oz y Barnette son reconocibles por sus apariciones en televisión. El primero, como invitado recurrente de Oprah Winfrey; y la segunda, como comentarista de Fox News.En el frente demócrata encontramos al actual vicegobernador de Pennsylvania, John Fetterman. Reconocible por ser físicamente gigante y por tener un historial progresista en sus posturas económicas y sociales, es con suma probabilidad el candidato más carismático de la contienda.Su principal desafío en estas primarias será el actual congresista Conor Lamb, quien se presenta como una opción más moderada desde Pittsburgh. Lamb cuenta con el apoyo de varios políticos del partido que lo creen más capaz de ganarse a los votantes independientes y conservadores del estado.El foco: esta carrera al Senado está catalogada por varios analistas políticos como altamente competitiva, lo que significa que no hay un partido particularmente beneficiado en la previa a la contienda y que la valía de los candidatos debería ser determinante para empezar a vislumbrar un favorito.En las primarias, el enfrentamiento entre Fetterman y Lamb promete. Todavía falta ver cómo se posicionan los principales líderes de las alas progresista y establishment de los demócratas, pero cabe prever una división máxima.Y lo mismo ocurre en el bando republicano, donde los posicionamientos de Trump y de Mitch McConnell, líder del partido en el Senado, dejarán claras las líneas rojas.👱 Ohio: por TrumpLo importante: Ohio era hasta hace unos años uno de los estados bisagra más competitivos de EE. UU., pero la tendencia conservadora desde la elección de Trump lo está convirtiendo en auténtica criptonita para candidatos demócratas —salvo contadas excepciones.Sherrod Brown, senador demócrata, es una de ellas. Lleva ya encadenadas tres victorias a nivel estatal desde 2006 gracias a su perfil de político demócrata tradicional prosindicatos.Los candidatos: un candidato que quiere seguir el estilo de Brown centrándose en los trabajadores del Midwest es Tim Ryan, congresista demócrata que representa un distrito de clase media desde 2003 y que tiene pocas posibilidades de reelección en su escaño por los nuevos mapas aprobados por los republicanos que controlan Ohio.Ryan está recaudando mucho dinero gracias a la notoriedad mediática que ha ido ganando en los últimos años, amén de desafíos a Nancy Pelosi y una corta candidatura a la presidencia en 2020.Ahora, Ryan está recaudando mucho más dinero que durante su breve candidatura presidencial y a priori no tiene rivales a la altura en unas primarias demócratas que debería ganar con facilidad.La batalla más intensa estará en las primarias republicanas, donde el campo está mucho más abierto y el favorito es ahora mismo Josh Mandel, un candidato senatorial perenne cuya retórica ultraconservadora y pro-teorías de la conspiración tiene el suficiente calado entre el electorado republicano como para ganar.Sus rivales directos son el escritor J.D. Vance, apoyado por los billetes del cofundador de PayPal Peter Thiel o el presentador Tucker Carlson; el banquero de inversión Mike Gibbons, que ha metido millones de dólares de su propio dinero en la carrera; y la presidenta del partido republicano de Ohio Jane Timken.El foco: las primarias republicanas serán un examen definitorio de la senda que toma el partido republicano en los próximos años. Si Mandel triunfa, más candidatos como él intentarán ganar primarias en otros estados del país —y no necesariamente solo en escaños muy conservadores como el de la congresista Marjorie Taylor Greene.Vance sería sin embargo una apuesta mucho más tradicional, aunque en los últimos meses ha abrazado una retórica bastante más descarnada y pro-Trump que lo que ha dejado ver en el pasado.Si Mandel llega a las generales, Ryan podría aprovechar el perfil de extrema derecha de su rival para dar la sorpresa y ganar un escaño que podría permitir a los demócratas mantener su mayoría en la cámara alta.🏔 Colorado: voto latinoLo importante: el octavo distrito de Colorado se perfila como una de las carreras más competitivas del país en las próximas elecciones. La ínfima mayoría que mantienen los demócratas en la cámara baja podría convertir este escaño en uno de los que decida qué partido controla el órgano en 2023.El octavo es uno de los que se estrenará por primera vez en las elecciones de medio mandato. Tras el censo de 2020, Colorado consiguió ganar un escaño extra en la cámara baja como reflejo de su crecimiento poblacional en la última década.La particularidad de Colorado es que el rediseño distrital estuvo a cargo de una comisión independiente, no de las cámaras legislativas, lo que hizo que el nuevo mapa ofrezca a los demócratas una perspectiva mucho más desalentadora que la que cabría esperar en un estado de tendencia azul.Los demócratas controlan actualmente todas las esferas de gobierno en el estado y habrían podido dibujar los mapas a su favor si no se hubiera aprobado la formación de una comisión independiente en 2018.Los candidatos: dada la gran competitividad del distrito, las elecciones primarias no van a tener un rol tan decisivo como en otros distritos de tendencia más marcada. Sin embargo, será clave para ambos partidos que de esas primarias emerjan buenos candidatos que consigan recaudar dinero y resistir los ataques del contrincante.Las primarias demócratas incluyen tres candidatos: Yadira Caraveo, Johnny Humphrey y Chaz Tedesco.Caraveo es una pediatra con un perfil progresista, afianzado por su patrocinio a leyes reguladoras de combustibles fósiles. Tedesco es un veterano de la Marina y con un perfil político más afín al apoyo de trabajadores y obreros. Se encuentra respaldado por Nuestro PAC, un Super PAC lanzado por el consultor político Chuck Rocha, quien dirigió la estrategia de alcance latino de Bernie Sanders en las primarias demócratas de 2020.Las primarias republicanas tienen cuatro contendientes: Ryan González, Jewels Grey, Barbara Kirkmeyer, Jan Kulmann y Lori Saine.Kirkmeyer, actual senadora estatal y comisionada del condado de Weld por cinco mandatos, es posiblemente el nombre más destacable de las primarias republicanas. Kirkmeyer ha reconocido la legitimidad de los resultados de las elecciones de 2020, algo que sin duda le dará puntos.Saine, actual comisionada del condado de Weld, tiene un perfil polémico marcadamente ultraconservador que quizá le dé posibilidades en las primarias, pero no en las generales.El foco: La clave para ganar este escaño será que los partidos eviten una agenda identitaria y nominen un candidato moderado. Si cualquiera de las partes vira demasiado a la izquierda o demasiado a la derecha, es probable que pierdan esta carrera.El octavo distrito tiene además una destacada comunidad latina. Hasta un tercio de la población está representada por ellos, de ahí los apellidos hispanos de los candidatos. Eso significa que los resultados aquí probablemente ofrezcan pistas de si los demócratas están perdiendo apoyos entre el electorado latino.🗳 Otras carreras interesantesCon tal de no extender esta newsletter más de la cuenta, también queríamos poner el foco en algunos otros estados y distritos que tendrán algunas de las carreras más fascinantes del ciclo electoral. Estas son siete de ellas:Michigan (Gobernador): la gobernadora demócrata Gretchen Whitmer se enfrenta a la reelección con números de aprobación no demasiado fuertes en un estado últimamente complicado para los demócratas, aunque todavía no tiene rivales demasiado peligrosos.Florida (Senado): el senador republicano Marco Rubio tendrá una rival formidable delante, la congresista demócrata y primera jefa de la policía de Orlando Val Demmings. Rubio debería ganar con la ayuda de la popularidad del gobernador Ron DeSantis, pero Demmings es una excelente recaudadora que dará mucha guerra.Nevada (Senado): la senadora demócrata Catherine Cortez Masto, primera senadora latina de la historia, ganó su escaño en 2016 por apenas 27,000 votos y perdiendo 16 de los 17 distritos del estado (Clark County, donde está Las Vegas, representa casi tres cuartas partes de la población). Si el voto latino no aguanta, un rival duro podría dejar la mayoría demócrata en el Senado tiritando.Georgia (Senado): el senador demócrata Raphael Warnock cuenta con la ayuda de Stacey Abrams para mejorar sus números a nivel estatal, pero Georgia sigue siendo un estado bisagra donde cualquier movimiento podría enterrar las posibilidades demócratas de revalidar la victoria del pasado enero.New Hampshire (Senado): la senadora demócrata Maggie Hassan ganó en 2016 por poco más de 1,000 votos y sus números de aprobación la tienen como una de las candidatas más vulnerables de su partido. Necesitará todo el apoyo posible en los suburbs del sudeste del estado, cerca de Boston.Maine (Segundo distrito): el congresista demócrata Jared Golden es el único que se ha opuesto a los paquetes legislativos American Rescue Plan en marzo y Build Back Better en noviembre. ¿Será su perfil independiente suficiente para ganar en el distrito rural de Maine que Trump ganó en 2020?Wyoming (Distrito general): la congresista republicana Liz Cheney tiene por delante unas primarias republicanas en las que todo el aparato republicano pro-Trump estará en su contra. Queda por ver si el electorado obedecerá órdenes del nuevo líder del partido.¿Desea saber más? En FiveThirtyEight tienen un buen resumen de los temas que definirán las elecciones de medio mandato de noviembre. Y el diario conservador The Washington Examiner cuentan con un repaso de las diez carreras que con mayor probabilidad cambiarán de partido en 2022.🎬 Una recomendaciónCon la colaboración de FilminHierve es una película británica de 2021 dirigida por Philip Barantini. Es un thriller que sigue la jornada de un chef londinense en su restaurante de Estrella Michelín, quizá uno de los trabajos de servicio más estresantes que existen.Stephen Graham (quizá te suene por poner rostro a Al Capone en Boardwalk Empire) interpreta al chef protagonista en un elenco que completan una sorprendente Vinette Robinson y el siempre competente Jason Flemyng.La película está rodada en un solo plano secuencia. Es decir, que no se produce ningún corte desde el comienzo y hasta el final. Es un hito que ya han realizado otros largometrajes como la alemana Victoria para transmitir la tensión a través de una cámara que no da tregua.En ese sentido, este gastro-thriller cuenta con el escenario perfecto: un restaurante en el que la presión es constante en la cocina, en la barra y en las mesas de los clientes más exigentes.A Hierve le bastan las interpretaciones de Graham y Robinson para destacar, pero son la puesta en escena y los ritmos del guion los que ayudan a que el punto de ebullición (boiling point, que es el acertado título en inglés) triunfe de tal manera. Y el final está a la altura, que no es poco.Hierve está disponible en Filmin.⚡️ Un juego memeWordle es un juego online similar al concurso televisivo estadounidense Lingo que tuvo varias versiones internacionales, incluida una en España que emitió La 2 de Televisión Española con Ramoncín como presentador entre 1991 y 1996.El formato de Wordle requiere que el jugador adivine una palabra de cinco letras sin ninguna pista previa. Tras el primer intento, el juego revela qué letras de las escogidas están en el lugar correcto (verde), cuáles forman parte de la palabra a adivinar pero no están en el lugar correcto (amarillo) y cuáles no forman parte de la palabra (gris).Es de ahí que probablemente hayas visto tantos recuadros de los colores verde, amarillo y gris en tu timeline de Twitter últimamente. Cientos de miles de personas se han enganchado al juego en las últimas semanas.Existen versiones en inglés y en castellano, con lo que quizá te pierdas parte del fenómeno si no juegas ambas. ¿Por qué? Porque la palabra correcta es la misma para todo el mundo en cada entrega diaria y solo con la respuesta puedes resolver después chistes como este:Que Wordle se haya globalizado me recuerda a lo que pasó en su momento con la app HQ Trivia en la que millones de personas competían en directo para repartirse miles de dólares en premios respondiendo preguntas de trivia.En Wordle no hay premio, ni app, ni anuncios. Ni siquiera notificaciones para recordarte que tienes que volver a jugar hoy. Pero sí existe cierta competitividad, sobre todo en un timeline de Twitter donde unos y otros comparten sus cajitas de colores para demostrar lo bien que se les ha dado la jornada.The New York Times ha publicado un artículo repasando el origen romántico del juego y es genial descubrir que las ambiciones de su creador no son demasiado grandes salvo que ofrecer un pasatiempo más al mundo.Un pasatiempo con el que precisamente el Times está teniendo mucho éxito con un modelo de suscripción que incluye juegos como Spelling Bee.En cualquier caso, el balance general es el mismo de siempre con este tipo de fenómenos. Algunos lo aman y otros, simplemente, lo detestan:En otro orden de cosas, este lunes estaré en directo en Twitch a partir de las 21:00 hora peninsular española para recuperar el Viernes Cinéfago que no pude hacer esta semana y volver con Lunes por el mundo con todas las novedades de política internacional.Podrás seguir el directo en mi canal de Twitch.Hasta el lunes, This is a public episode.
