    September 17, 2024 ~ Lucy Ann Lance talks with Mike Wilkinson, Reporter / Data Analysis, Bridge Michigan.

The broader context includes similar economic pressures in other countries and U.S. political debates on how to address these issues.

    Perry Seibert ~ Talking Pictures - "Evil Does Not Exist"
    2024/09/13
    September 13, 2024 ~ Lucy Ann Lance talks with Perry Seibert from the Movie Critics Guild for this week's Talking Pictures. Perry reviews “Evil Does Not Exist,” a film by acclaimed Japanese director Yusuke Hamaguchi, known for “Drive My Car.” The film stars an amateur cast and centers on a widower handyman in a small Japanese village. It begins by depicting his daily life and bond with his daughter before introducing a contentious proposal for a glamping site by an entertainment conglomerate, sparking concerns among villagers. However, the film’s deeper focus is on the human experience rather than the plot. Seibert praises its thought-provoking nature, subtle storytelling, and unique artistic qualities, such as minimal dialogue and distinctive cinematography that captures the natural beauty of the protagonist’s environment.
