I don't know how I missed the #movie Tulip Fever. I found it when i had a Tom Stoppard marathon the w/e he passed. I've mentioned what a fan i am of the genius, #existentialist playwright
It was so fantastic, I've been meaning to discuss it. He co-wrote the screenplay, which is ๐ฃ๐ณ๐ช๐ญ๐ญ๐ช๐ข๐ฏ๐ต๐คฏ
plus, the ๐ข๐ฎ๐ข๐ป๐ช๐ฏ๐จ cast:
Cristoph Waltz
Alicia Vikander
Judi Dench
Tom Hollander (who's done a lot of #Stoppard's work)
also, Cara Delevigne & Zach Galifianakous
Highly recommend it๐
@acscricket sad news. i'm a huge Tom Stoppard fan. 'Rosencrantz & Guildenstern Are Dead' was my introduction to Existentialism in high school.
When my father visited me for the Army Navy game one year at the Meadowlands, we went to see his play 'Artist Descending A Staircase' in NYC afterwards. My father's favorite philosopher was Kierkegaard, so we had many wonderful discussions on existentialism.

This #Existentialist article sums up some shocking facts of #failed #States in the #USA. Solution? A focus on imaginary issues.
#Missisippi > water system collapse > residents spent weeks collecting rainwater in buckets > mandatory "In God We Trust" classroom posters.
#Alabama > hookworm problem, a disease of extreme poverty eradicated in most developing nations decades ago > abortion bans.
#Louisiana > highest incarceration rate on Earth > Ten Commandments displays in classrooms.
I'm a big Camus fan - a new adaptation of The Stranger by Francois Ozon (in French, of course) will premiere at the Venice Film Festival. It stars Benjamin Voisin as Mersault, and it looks great. Psyched to see this one.
