A few Days In September
I watched this movie yesterday on Netflix. It was very good! It is a foreign film (french) about a man who is working for the government who had knowledge about the september 11 attacks and was going to make a large amount of money through connections of his. It is a very mysterious movie that keeps you on the edge. He has two children that did not know they were related until later on in life.
It is a very interesting angle about the 9/11 attacks. Most movies about it focus on the attacks themselves while this one focuses on how it affected people on the other side of the world. Has a very profound message and his daughter said something about Americans that seems to be on the mind of a lot of Europeans these days. Something along the lines of Empires, and how they never last. The United States is not going to either.
I would recommend it to anyone looking for a nice film that does not mind reading a few subtitles.

I've written a number of times about what has become conventional wisdom – spread primarily by academics like Jonathan Haidt – that phones and/or social media are evil, and that they cause teenagers in particular to develop anxiety, depression, etc. and th...

If you missed it. I already described day one. Caffeinated and ready, we all gathered in the same spacious room as yesterday, but seated in new places as “suggested” by our captain. Some of us even remembered to move over the name tags we wrote yesterday t...
