I Dig Crazy Flicks with CatBusRuss

Listen to podcast episode #10 of I Dig Crazy Flicks with CatBusRuss: "The Condor Daughter: Bolivia's Best Picture 2026" on Pandora - Thanks to Kelly Hargrave and Outsider Pictures, CatBusRuss received an opportunity to contribute to Hispanic Heritage Month by reviewing Bolivia's submission to the Academy of Motion Pictures Arts and Science for next year's Oscars presentation, Alvaro Olmos Torrico's "The Condor Daughter". Per Ms. Hargrave: It is a 109-minute Bolivian coming-of-age story about a teenage midwife's daughter torn between ancient tradition and big-city dreams, filmed in the Quechua-speaking Andes with non-professional actors. The performances provided by leads María Magdalena Sanizo & Marisol Vallejos Montaño left Russ surprised by the amateur status of the actresses. This feature is a touching tale about defending tradition despite its subjugation of women. Is it a tale about rebellion or just accepting your true self? Our host finds this feature to be something most Americans should be able to relate to. Hopefully, he is able to convince you to see this feature and understand what can be learned from it. It may not win the gold statuette in March 2027, but the feature itself is indeed a winner. If you are looking for a winning snack, ⁠Doich! Snacking Dough. It is cookie dough with more protein, less sugar, and none of the eight major allergens. Our host is not a cookie fan, but this stuff taste great and leaves you feeling full quickly.

Ninety For Chill with CatBusRuss@ninetyforchill.bsky.social · yesterday

“The Condor Daughter” is touching tale about finding one’s place in the world Does modern society have a heart? Do the rules of the Old World allow for a soul? @outsiderpictures.bsky.social encourages CatBusRuss to step out of his comfort zone music.amazon.com/podcasts/8e1... #filmsky #moviesky

“The Exorcist” maybe the scariest film about possession (not called “Possession”), but is being the puppet of a demon the worst fate? How about the Holy Spirit like “Saint Maud” or an assassin like in “Possessor”? “Demons” & “Evil Dead 2” tell you the books to avoid. #filmsky #moviesky #horrorsky

"Michelle Billington remembers having to change the bedsheets every morning, as they would be soaked in sweat. One day she asked Dynamite why he sweated so much in the night. He exploded. 'Because I’m in pain, ya fookin’ cow!'”

Reading this puff piece (note: they didn't even have 30 minutes of FINISHED footage! This opens next month!), I notice that the comparisons it/the filmmakers make to other movies are specifically other DISNEY movies ("Like Beauty and the Beast! Like Aladdin!"), except the mention of Yoda...oh, wait.

Disney screened 30 minutes of ‘Hexed’ at View Conference, revealing a playful world of witchcraft, dazzling magic VFX, and a pair of scene-stealing sidekicks. We were there for the footage and producer Yvett Merino’s presentation. Here’s what we saw: www.cartoonbrew.com/feature-film...
