Not sure the magnitude of this is fully understood: Israel has wiped out 2,700 families in Gaza, leaving 6,000 people as the sole survivors of entire bloodlines. This is the result of deliberate policy, pursued with full knowledge of its effects. This is not war. It is genocide.

Guillermo del Toro tells young directors they should not listen when “people tell you art is not important,” because that is “always a prelude to fascism.”
“Be kind, be involved, believe in your art. At a time when people tell you art is not important, that is always a prelude to fascism. They think they can debase everything that makes us a little better, a little more human. And that, in my book, and in my life, includes monsters," @RealGDT said.

New posters for ‘THE THING WITH FEATHERS’, starring Benedict Cumberbatch.
The film follows a father & his sons who struggle to cope with the loss of their wife & mother, while grief itself appears in the form of a large crow.
Now playing in theaters.
