Zach Cregger's WEAPONS overlaps with Atom Egoyan's THE SWEET HEREAFTER in both its broad narrative setup — a town grapples with the sudden disappearance of a group of children — and its non-traditional structure, but diverges considerably in its tone. Then again, WEAPONS diverges considerably from its own tone as it goes on, artfully shifting gears as it makes its way through a story that prioritizes entertainment value over horror allegory. We're joined once again by Vulture movie critic Alison Willmore to talk about why that approach worked so well on us, and less so on the film's detractors, before bringing THE SWEET HEREAFTER back in to discuss how each film's broken timeline serves to reveal the intricacies of a community shattered by grief and anger. Then in Your Next Picture Show, we offer two recommendations for follow-up viewing, one for each half of this pairing. Please share your thoughts about THE SWEET HEREAFTER, WEAPONS, or anything else in the world of film, by sending an email or voice memo to comments@nextpictureshow.net, or leaving a short voicemail at (773) 234-9730.

For the first time in nineteen years, Oscar-winning director Spike Lee and Oscar-winning actor Denzel Washington have re-united for their fifth collaboration after Mo Better Blues, Malcolm X, He Got Game, and Inside Man.  Washington stars as David, a New York City music mogul with ONE goal at the outset of this story: to retain full control of the record label he had built over the past several decades to reconnect with the music.  However some other mysterious figure has other ideas as he calls David out of the blue claiming to suddently have kidnapped the mogul's son Trey (Aubrey Joseph) and he is demanding a LOT of money in return. :o In his corner is personal driver/bodyguard Paul played by Oscar-nominee Jeffrey Wright.  And what results is a high-energy thriller/musical/New York movie which also happens to be a loose remake of Akira Kurosawa's 1963 classic High and Low.    Host: Geoff GershonEdited By Ella GershonProducer: Marlene GershonSend us a texthttps://livingforthecinema.com/Facebook:https://www.facebook.com/Living-for-the-Cinema-Podcast-101167838847578Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/livingforthecinema/Letterboxd:https://letterboxd.com/Living4Cinema/

Thematically rich, unabashedly confrontational and occasionally baffling, Highest 2 Lowest is everything you would hope for from a late period Spike Lee picture, as Lee grapples with personal concerns about masculinity, the contradictions of Black capitalism, and the generational divide around the nature of authenticity in art when success has finally come your way.We begin with a discussion of the bold formal choices of Highest 2 Lowest, including the stylistic gambit of dividing the film firmly into two aesthetic halves; the first half marked by an austere, antiseptic, and artificial atmosphere that finally gives way to a more daring, brash and musical rhythm when the film descends on the streets of Spike's native New York, escaping the Dumbo high rise apartment of the film's early chapters. Then, we explore the film as autocritique, with Lee and Washington examining their positions as elder statesmen of Black artistry, and the push-pull of working within systems of capital built upon racialized heirarchies. Finally, we tackle the film's thorny political propositions, its conservative tendencies, and the thrill of trying to parse where exactly an artist like Spike Lee stands on the issues and questions he presents within the text.Read Robert Daniels on Highest 2 Lowest at Roger EbertRead Alphonse Pierre on Highest 2 Lowest at PitchforkFollow Robert Daniels on Twitter.....Our theme song is "Mirror" by Chris Fish

Bei der Vorstellung seines neuen Films „Highest 2 Lowest“ stellte der Oscarpreisträger klar, dass für ihn der Glaube wichtiger ist als öffentliche Zustimmung.

New figures from Stats NZ show the gender pay gap has dropped to 5.3 percent in the June Quarter 2025, its lowest level since 1998. Advocacy group Mind the Gap co-founder Dellwyn Stuart spoke to Ingrid Hipkiss.

Lower mortgage rates and income growth have helped improve housing affordability. Cotality NZ's new report finds the national value-to-income ratio reached its lowest point since mid-2019 in the June quarter, at 7.5%. National property values also remain almost 17% below their post-covid peak. Cotality Chief Property Economist Kelvin Davidson told Mike Hosking mortgage serviceability has seen a significant change, compared to its 2022 high of 57%. He says it now takes around 44% of the median household income, so it's getting close to normal. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Welcome back to another episode of The Culture Garden Podcast!

Gomer is a Toronto-based power punk band born during the 2020 pandemic. What started as a demo-swapping project grew into a full-force collaboration, with the lineup solidifying in 2024: Michael Hawco (bass), Chad Kerswill (vocals), Oscar Laguan (guitar), Jessica Fleming (guitar), and Andrew McMullen (drums). Their debut release, The Age of Gomer (2022), laid the foundation for their storytelling. But the band has since pushed their sound, energy, and songwriting further than ever. At the heart of Gomer is a character who embodies struggle, persistence, and the demand to be heard in a world not built for them. That hero is flawed but relatable, someone who continues to fight no matter the odds. Gomer's next chapter begins with their EP The Rise of Gomer in September 2025, followed by their first full-length album Gomer Lives in early 2026. Both releases mark the band's evolution into a sharper, louder, and more fearless force.

“Highest 2 Lowest” is an over-the-top, bougie and unapologetically New York movie. It might also be Spike Lee's most conservative offering to date. Wesley invites critic Vinson Cunningham to discuss whether the 68-year-old director is picking up an old refrain, and telling young Black men to pull up their pants.Thoughts?
