You might not know this film is out, as a number of social media platforms have banned it from being advertised hollywoodreporter.com/news/p…

TikTok “Permanently Suspends” the ‘Musk’ Film Ad Account Before Reinstating It, Raising Suppression...

The move came just as Alex Gibney's doc expanded to nearly 500 screens. Distributor Bleecker Street was upset and concerned by the two-day ban.

“Musk” Review: At 4 hours long, Alex Gibney’s documentary is a bit much and lacks new revelations, though the cumulative effects of seeing all these stories laid out together is quite unnerving. #Venezia83 ign.com/articles/musk-movie-…

While it’s true some people dismiss astrology on misogynist grounds, I’m afraid that Le Guin said it best.

As others have said, Taika Waititi’s Klara and the Sun is tonally very unlike the book and strips out whole plot lines. What’s left behind actually works far better than I’d expected, but it’s slight and sentimental, no getting past that

Ike Barinholtz was a total scream as Elon Musk in Artificial. I suspect some won’t enjoy the performance but I loved it
Ilyaz@AomineRebornOct 12
Can’t wait for this performance to be talked about as one of the most hilarious impersonations ever put to screen, the whole theatre was dying at every bit of screentime Ike Barinholtz had as Elon 😭😭
