A new film from Steve McQueen is about to hit cinema screens: Blitz. Set during the devastating German bombing raids of 1940 to 1941, it follows Saiorse Ronan as east end mum Rita, and her son George, played by Elliot Heffernan, as they travel across London searching for each other.In some ways, it's a new look at history, Rita's son is mixed race – and issues of race, class, and gender are present throughout McQueen's film.But Blitz also takes its place in a long tradition: almost 80 years on from the end of the Second World War, Britain's role in both world wars still dominates British culture and retains a central place in our national psyche, and our politics. Why is this?Tom Gatti is joined by journalist and academic Gary Younge and historian David Edgerton.Get access to all our reporting at newstatesman.com and receive your copy of our weekly magazine.

PopaHALLics #123 "Pop Tarts & Pop Sweets"What can we say about Jerry Seinfeld's new movie about Pop Tarts? How about: You'd be better off taking a bite of the Spanish Inquisition ("The Familiar"), teenage murder ("Under the Bridge"), a murderous con man ("Ripley"), the Ku Klux Klan ("A Fever in the Heartland"), even an apocalyptic wasteland ("Fallout").Streaming:"Unfrosted," Netflix. Seinfeld's directorial debut is a relentlessly silly film about the creation of Pop Tarts. Seinfeld, Melissa McCarthy, Jim Gaffigan, Amy Schumer, and many other comedians star in this tale of the early '60s race between the Kellogg's and Post companies to create a square gooey-filled pastry."Fallout," Amazon Prime. Most of this drama based on the popular video game franchise takes place hundreds of years after a nuclear war. A perky vault dweller goes to the desolate surface in search of her abducted father; a squire becomes a "knight" in a motorized suit of armor; and a sentinent zombie who dresses and acts like a Clint Eastwood spaghetti Western creates havoc wherever he goes. Imaginative and violent, with an odd, goofy sense of humor."Ripley," Netflix. In this limited series, Andrew Scott (the hot priest in "Fleabag," Moriarty in "Sherlock") plays the latest incarnation of Tom Ripley, Patricia Highsmith's scheming con man. Dakota Fanning and Johnny Flynn also star in this neo-noir psychological thriller."Under the Bridge," Hulu. Eight teenagers are accused of murdering a 14-year-old girl in this "American true-crime" miniseries. Oscar nominee Lily Gladstone plays an investigator while Riley Keough plays Rebecca Godfrey, who wrote the book that inspired the miniseries."Byzantium," for rental or various channels with ads. Gemma Atherton and Saiorse Ronan ("Brooklyn") play two nomadic female vampires surviving on their wiles in this visually stunning, atmospheric 2013 film. Director Neil Jordan ("The Crying Game") reinvigorated vampire movies with his version of Anne Rice's "Interview with a Vampire."Books:"A Fever in the Heartland: The Ku Klux Klan's Plot to Take Over America, and the Woman Who Stopped Them," by Timothy Egan. This true story explores the second coming of the Klan in the 1920s and their leader, a grifter named D.C. Stephenson, who had so much power in Indiana at one time that he said "I am the law." He was undone by a trial that featured the dying testimony of a young woman he had abducted, raped and tortured."The Familiar," by Leigh Bardugo. When a disgraced secretary tries to regain the favor of Spain's king, a scullion with a gift for "little miracles" becomes involved in an effort to defeat the hated English. Unfortunately, the Spanish Inquisition does not look kindly on her use of magic.

Today, May 21, is the 221st anniversary of Mary Anning's birth. She is not a household name, by any means—though she is believed to be the inspiration behind the well-known tongue-twister “she sells sea shells by the sea shore”. However, it wasn't shells she was selling, but fossils of long extinct creatures of a bygone era. She was ‘the greatest fossilist the world ever knew'. Though, the sad truth is much of the world never knew, and still does not. 221 years after Mary Anning's birth, a young girl from the very town where Mary lived her entire life is fighting to rectify a historical injustice in recognizing Anning in bronze—a fitting honor for a woman who spent her life uncovering creatures lost to time. Towards the end, I butcher the pronunciation of Saiorse Ronan. We're all human, right? Don't make my mistake and learn how to say her name the right way in this video: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=kbv6_rpC7jw (https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=kbv6_rpC7jw) If you would like to support https://www.maryanningrocks.co.uk/ (Mary Anning Rocks), you can do so by visiting http://www.maryanningrocks.co.uk/ (http://www.maryanningrocks.co.uk).

Zoals Greta Gerwig laatst ontdekte, is alomtegenwoordig acteertalent Saiorse Ronan een matroesjka: als je haar openmaakt komen er nog drie kleinere vrouwtjes uit. Voeg daar de dromerige slaapogen van alomtegenwoordig acteertalent Timotheé Blasé aan toe, en je hebt de perfecte cast voor een verfilming van het 19e-eeuwse boek Little Women. Dit vooruitstrevende werk zit vol feministische boodschappen die (helaas) nog steeds relevant zijn, en Gerwig weet met behulp van haar matroesjkapoppetjes een kerstfilmachtige sfeer neer te zetten die nét niet doorslaat in het zuurstokgehalte. Altijd al afgevraagd wie van Het Cult-Uur Jo, Amy, Beth en Meg zijn? Hunker niet langer naar een oplossing voor dit mysterie, en vlam deze aflevering aan.

Hey gang, do you like VIDYA GAMEZ? What about MOVIES based on VIDYA GAMEZ? Oh, right, no one likes that second one. Well we watched one of those this week, Assassin's Creed starring Michael Fassbender and Marion Cotillard, and sure enough it was bad again this time! So we fixed it up into a sort of 15th-century Wild at Heart, and we didn't hide that fact at all and we called it Lo! Thou Art Wylde at Hearte, starring Madeleine Petsch, Saiorse Ronan, Nicolas Cage, and our dear dear friend Laura Dern. Be glad, guys, Phil almost made us make a Waluigi movie. Also, we fix the trailers for Status Update and No Postage Necessary
