Few modern writers so remind me of the famous Virginia Woolf quote about fiction as a “spider’s web” more than Argentine fabulist Jorge Luis Borges.

This movie is long but earns the runtime by keeping you running through its entirety. A deep family backstory builds into a crescendo and then "goes kinetic" with methodical and punctuated motion. The car chase scene was reminiscent of Vertigo on speed - equally hypnotic and teeth-clenching - definitely the best sequence. Sen Penn is the driving force throughout: the protagonist is such only in name, and Penn's antagonist fascism is the real life of the second half. An incredible, physical pe...| Josh Beckman

When we think about politics, we often focus on laws, institutions, or debates. But philosopher Crispin Sartwell, in his book Political Aesthetics, invites us to reconsider this narrow view.
