![]() ![]() Meanwhile, Hulu’s TV adaptation has struggled to expand past Atwood’s source material and make her ideas about the ’80s relevant to today. Over the past year, two new novels have come out that attempt to follow in The Handmaid’s Tale’s footsteps and position themselves as the feminist dystopias of the Trump era. In the Trump era, we’ve been scrambling to come up with a fictional way to grapple with our structural misogyny that’s as effective as The Handmaid’s Tale. It suggested that the ideology that would allow such a world to come to pass was already more than present in our own world. ![]() The Handmaid’s Tale exaggerated the undertones of American Puritanism that were ascendant during the Reagan era into an imagined totalitarian theocracy, one in which women were treated as chattel and forced into lives of sexual slavery. ![]() When Margaret Atwood first published The Handmaid’s Tale in 1985, she was working with one of literary fiction’s most effective ways of looking at how misogyny is baked into the structures of our society: the feminist dystopia. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() He has been awarded fellowships from the National Endowment for the Arts, the Rockefeller Foundation, and the Guggenheim Foundation. Later Irving taught at Mount Holyoke College, the Writers' Workshop in Iowa, and the Bread Loaf Writers' Conference.

Irving was educated at Phillips Exeter Academy, where he acquired his lifelong interests in wrestling and writing.

The only "real"/pre-Battleworld characters we see in this miniseries are Miles Morales and Doom. Everyone not on the life rafts died by the end of Secret Wars #1. The tricky bit is that these are *not actually* the 6 versions of these characters, but Doom-created simulacra of them. Note also that, as the second issue points out, this or something like it has apparently happened before, and Doom has simply wiped the errant domains out and started over with them. ![]() ![]() Note that the setting for this miniseries is Manhattan on Battleworld-or, rather, two of the Manhattan domains (the one based on 616, except with Doom in charge, and the one based on 1610, except with Doom in charge also), which-thanks to their respective Tony Starks, or possibly a Doom experiment-are now "overlaid on one another," sharing the same space. By Brian Michael Bendis, Mark Bagley and Scott Hanna ![]() ![]() Wheat raises blood sugar levels, causes immunoreactive problems, inhibits the absorption of important minerals and aggravates our intestines.Īnd much of this may stem from the fact that wheat simply ain't what it used to be. The answer, it appears, has to do with a whole lot of nastiness that's present in grain-based foods. So what's going on? And why is everybody suddenly blaming wheat?ĪNALYSIS: Are Pesticides and Food Allergies Linked? But wheat is being increasingly blamed for the onset of other health conditions, like obesity, heart disease, and a host of digestive problems, including the dramatic rise in celiac-like disorders. The problem is that their small intestine is unable to properly digest gluten, a protein that's found in grains. ![]() It supplies about 20 percent of the total food calories worldwide, and is a national staple in most countries.īut as is well known, some people, like those with celiac disease, need to stay away from it. Without a doubt, wheat plays a major role in our diets. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Award-winning actress Brenda Blethyn plays Vera Stanhope, a rumpled, often flustered lead detective working in Northern England, wearing a hat that makes her look like Snufkin from the Moomins. ![]() It’s no overstatement to say this is essential viewing for any fan of British crime drama: this is where it all started.Īlong with the hit crime series Shetland, Verais based on a series of novels penned by British mystery writer Ann Cleeves, and 12 seasons have been filmed to date. We watch her fight her way up through the ranks through the seasons, with a fantastic cohort of colleagues (including Mark Strong and Tom Bell) and guest stars (including Ralph Fiennes, Peter Capaldi, David Thewliss, Zoë Wanamaker, Ciarán Hinds, Kelly Reilly, and many more). She’s driven, selfish, but also incredibly compassionate and dedicated. She drinks too much, smokes too much, works too hard, and sleeps with all the wrong men. She fights sexism within and without the police force, constantly on her guard against the boys’ club intent on taking her down, and suspects and victims who don’t appreciate a woman in charge. Running for seven seasons starting in 1991 and written by Lynda La Plante, Jane solves brutal murders in London, leading an unruly crew of misogynist underlings who bristle under a woman’s leadership. ![]() The incomparable Helen Mirren stars as Detective Chief Inspector Jane Tennison in Prime Suspect, which is basically the OG in terms of female-led detective shows. ![]() ![]() ![]() And, indeed, her lecture has strong parallels to that scene-although it also includes more about her experiences of racism along with those of sexual assault. ![]() If you’ve watched I May Destroy You, the scene of Coel standing at a podium in front of an esteemed audience might remind you of a key point in the series where her character does the same, using the opportunity to call out a colleague as a rapist. For the most part, this book is a transcription of that almost hour-long lecture, with the addition of an Introduction and Epilogue, which includes the moth metaphor. Then again, back then I’d also never heard of Depeche Mode or Sarajevo,” she quips. “At the time, I’d never heard of the MacTaggart Lecture. Coel was the fifth woman, and only the first Black woman, to be given this honor. Although the book covers most of her life, from the age of seven to present day, the narration begins at the 2018 MacTaggart Lecture, which she was invited to give at the Edinburgh TV Festival. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Perhaps concerned by the box office flop of his The Day of the Locust, he took on a project with more popular appeal. John Schlesinger puts a fine production polish on this upscale spy/crime thriller. On 1976’s Marathon Man he spends only six pages, mostly relating anecdotes about Laurence Olivier, with side comment on Dustin Hoffman and director John Schlesinger. In his book Adventures in the Screen Trade William Goldman airs opinions about film theory, what audiences like, and his own screenwriting hits, some from his own novels.

Street Date Febru/ available through Kino Lorber / 39.95 The story is by William Goldman, from his own book.ġ976 / Color / 1:85 widescreen / 125 min. We wish Roy Scheider’s character could have continued in a series of crime thrillers - he brings genuine movie star charisma. The public applauded supporting star Laurence Olivier, who with just a few gestures creates a terrifying villain: “Is it safe?” William Devane and Marthe Keller co-star. William Goldman’s international conspiracy thriller provides Dustin Hoffman with an outright ‘action man’ star vehicle. ![]() |
