What To Watch: Clash Of The Titans (1981)
What To Watch: The Conspiracy (2012)
Christopher MacBride won’t have had any clue how prescient his 2012 film The Conspiracy would become. It arrived before the presidency of Donald Trump, and the POTUS’s relentless attack on mainstream media, by design diverting attention to fringe political commentators and sociopaths pushing nefarious theories. And it arrived well in advance of a post-COVID-19 world riddled be fear, mistrust and uncertainty. Where conspiracies peddled by Trump acolytes have displaced so-called “fake news” with an insidious credibility fuelled by social media memes.
What To Watch: Romper Stomper (1992)
Romper Stomper is an aesthetic tour de force. Fronted by a shaven-headed Russell Crowe prior to the Gladiator superstardom, his white supremacist is a disenfranchised Melbournian sweating rage from every pore. It’s admirable that Crowe’s glassy-eyed fury could be a moment away from tears as he teeters on an edge between frenzied animosity and a deep-rooted sadness. It’s a mark of the New Zealand born actor’s talent, revealing a subtle intimacy in a character that is otherwise underwritten.
