    Shouldn't any such movie challenge the viewer's own complacency just the teeniest bit? I couldn't shake KONTINENTAL '25 for days, yet for such an apparently scathing film, I walked out of EDDINGTON entirely unscathed (except for having been a bit bored).

  • Jessica Kiang @jessicakiang.bsky.socialBluesky · Jul 20, 2025

    They're very different films but I'd love to read a piece comparing EDDINGTON to Radu Jude's KONTINENTAL '25 in this regard. Jude's film is if anything more cutting (and far more of-the-moment) in its critique of performative liberalism and hollow virtue-posturing.

    Enjoying the ODYSSEY discourse but it feels like the reason it's happening is it's slightly more thoughtful than most of what people are seeing (despite not being THAT thinky). Any chance we can all level up to KONTINENTAL '25 or THE DUTCHMAN or even HER PRIVATE HELL for our next movie discourse?

    You're absolutely right! I write film reviews for a website and when I pitch reviewing a small film like "Kontinental '25" or "Mile End Kicks" they either reply "What's that?" or they give me a half-hearted "Yeah, OK I guess". Lol

    Long live Anna Magnani and Aldo Fabrizi! It's one of the best early scripts that Fellini co-authored for sure. We recently rewatched Rossellini's Europa '51 for a review as Radu Jude just adapted it for his film, Kontinental '25. Well worth watching. Bergman is heartbreaking in the lead of Europa.

The causes vary, too, from disproportionate economics to ethnic prejudice to social inequality to political squabbling to religious feuds, recurring dust-ups that transpire either alone or in combination with one another. And these conditions, in turn, generally evoke an array of responses, with some fueled by violence and…
