Calvin says to audience "The law is on the books but it would take all their resources to enforce it." He then flees, only a single leg still in view as a parent yells out "CALVIN!"ALT

Putting a highlight on this part specifically, teach children that they have the ability to fight back

The United States has 3 times as many Jerusalems as Israel

It’s “Smiling Girl, a Courtesan, Holding an Obscene Image” by Gerard van Honthorst!!

I think every film critic review needs a footnote called the “fun-o-meter” where they ignore everything they said in the previous paragraphs and have to answer objectively. put it on a scale. good good to bad good to bad good to bad bad. for example. did venom get a 30% on rotten tomatoes? yes. but watching sweaty tom hardy sit in a fish tank and eat a live lobster was VERY fun. some movies aren’t meant to win awards. they’re just meant to be a hoot n a holler
