Huge brawl at Queens casino caught on video: A massive brawl at the Resorts World Casino in Queens, New York was caught on video Friday night, with at least a dozen participants throwing chairs, punches and each other amid the melee.
Artist: Run The Jewels Album: RTJ4 Date Released: June 3rd, 2020 Listen YouTube Spotify Tidal Apple Music Artist Background The duo consisting of Atlanta rapper Killer Mike, and legendary underground produceMC El-P, known together as Run The Jewels, originally came together as a result of Adult Swim executive Jason DeMarco who introduced the two in 2011. After his 2011 album PL3DGE peaked at #115 on the US charts, Killer Mike told Jason that he wanted to make his own AmeriKKKa’s Most Wanted. Jason informed Mike, “If you want AmeriKKKa’s Most Wanted modernized, the only producer I know who comes close to the Bomb Squad-level of production is El-P”. The duo’s chemistry was immediate, as El-P went on to produce all of Killer Mike’s 2012 last solo album R.A.P. Music, and Mike featured on El-P’s final solo album Cancer 4 Cure. Mike and El’s respective albums released within a week of each other in May 2012, and the two embarked on a twenty-city US tour in the following months. After returning from tour, the pair had found a friendship growing between themselves, and made the decision to put other projects on hold and focus on the chemistry that had been sparked. Recording at an upstate NY studio beginning in April 2013, the duo re-appropriated the phrase “Run The Jewels” from the LL Cool J track “Cheesy Rat Blues", and released their self-titled collaborative album, for free via digital download, only a mere 2 months later in June 2013. 36” Chain vs. Pistol & Fist Run The Jewels discography currently exists in a distinct pairing. With Run The Jewels as their debut, this record set the group's tone as a light-hearted, braggadocious duo with as much confidence in their abilities as swag in their punchlines. Just over a year later, the sequel Run The Jewels 2 took the foundation set from their freshman effort and dialed the insanity up to 11. RTJ2 pushed the boundaries of their aggression and flows to new heights; with incredible energy in their verses, and absolutely impeccable beats, blending El-P’s signature industrial sound with sharp synth arpeggios, chopped Zach De La Rocha vocals, and absolutely bonkers Travis Barker drums. It was then nearly 3 years before Jamie and Mike followed up their breakout RTJ2, with Run The Jewels 3 being released again ahead of its scheduled release date via free digital download, this time on Christmas Eve 2016. Instead of these two attempting to outdo the pure insanity and in-your-face attitude found in their predecessor, Mike and El decide to evolve themselves as a group. The duo had noticeably pulled back on the swag and dick jokes which made such a splash on RTJ2, instead choosing a more subdued, electronic approach to their beats, as well as a clearly stronger political approach in their lyrics. This change in sound and style is demonstrated in the album cover’s artwork. The first two records featured the distinctive RTJ “Pistol and Fist”, with the fist tightly gripping a chain. The chain, in my opinion, represents the swag and braggadocio that drove the aggressive nature of their first two albums. In RTJ3 the chain is removed, leaving only hands that have transformed from bleeding and bandaged, to a pristine gold. This brings us to early 2020. It’s been nearly 4 years of living in a post-Trump America, and El-P announces that Run The Jewels fourth record has been completed. Mike and El live-stream the first single “yankee and the brave” on Instagram on March 22nd, 2020. Lyrically and sonically, RTJ4 exists as the successor to Run The Jewels 3, with Mike and El again taking the good from their previous effort and launching it into the creative stratosphere. El-P’s beats are again leaning towards the synthetic, electronic side, this time with the intensity dialed all the way up to 11. From a lyrical perspective, RTJ takes the politically-charged lyrics from their predecessor, and again, up the ante, laying down some of the hardest hitting and politically poignant bars either of these two have ever spit. Album Review 2020 was a year that none of us will soon forget. An unprecedented global health crisis kept the majority of us inside for months at a time. RTJ4 was announced on May 12th, 2020, with a release date slated for June 5th, 2020. However, with 2020 as the gift that won’t stop giving, the end of May was highlighted by the unjust killing of George Floyd. The phrase heard around the world, “I can’t breathe” instantly became a rally-cry for the oppressed to finally take to the streets to demand systemic police reform, as Floyd’s death was not the first time this phrase was uttered in an unjust police killing. In fact, a 2020 study by the New York Times showed that at least 70 people have died in police custody after using the same phrase over the past decade. As millions of American’s began organizing protests and demonstrations in the wake of Floyd’s death, Run The Jewels made the decision to release their latest chapter two days ahead of the scheduled release. El-P tweeted, just minutes ahead of the drop, “Fuck it, why wait. The world is infested with bullshit, so here’s something raw to listen to while you deal with it all. We hope it brings you some joy. Stay safe and hopeful out there and thank you for giving 2 friends the chance to be heard and do what they love”. In line with all past Run The Jewels releases, the album was made available for free digital download, two days ahead of its scheduled release date, on June 3rd, 2020. THE RETURN (we don’t mean no harm but we truly mean all the disrespect) RTJ4 opens with the first single, “yankee and the brave (ep. 4)”. Using the team names from their respective hometown baseball teams, Mike and El use the opening track to prove that they’re not just a hip-hop duo, they’re brothers, for better or worse. El-P kicks this installment off with rapid-fire, machine-gun esque snares, matching Killer Mike’s aggressive flow and tightly packed rhymes, before El jumps in to trade some dense rhymes as well. Mike and El depict themselves as outlaws, with Mike surrounded by cops with only one bullet remaining. He contemplates suicide instead of allowing the police to take him alive, until El-P jumps back in, offering Mike a way out, with a getaway car waiting outside. This tense situation is depicted lightheartedly in this song’s music video, which was released via Adult Swim and features the duo animated. The trade-off between Mike and El’s short verses are reminiscent of late-80’s EPMD flows, while the production sounds like boom-bap that’s been sent to us from the future. This distinctive blend of old-school rap roots and forward thinking production is what continues to separate Run The Jewels from absolutely all of their contemporaries. While so many artists are continually playing catch-up with the latest trends, RTJ are side-stepping the trendy and moving forward with the mind-bending. FLEXIN’ (ayo one for mayhem, two for mischief) The second single “ooh la la” samples a Gang Star track "DWYCK (feat. Nice & Smooth)" as the basis for the chorus. I say “samples” as that’s how it is credited in the album’s liner notes, however it’s truly an interpolation of Greg Nice’s bar, slowed down slightly, and sung by El-P and Greg Nice himself. El-P is a true old-head at heart, and it’s abundantly obvious in his work, even going as far as to recruit legendary producer DJ Premiere to handle the scratching on the back end of this banger. Out of key piano chords are looped to quickly create an unsettling aura surrounding the track, before El-P’s voice cuts through the infectious piano like a whip. Pounding, up-tempo drums are introduced after the chorus’ first iteration, creating what is possibly El-P’s first danceable beat. Lyrically, Mike and El-P initially seem scattered on this track, however the music video quickly makes their point very obvious.
”we imagined the world on the day that the age old struggle of class was finally over. a day that humanity, empathy and community were victorious over the forces that would separate us based on arbitrary systems created by man. this video is a fantasy of waking up on a day that there is no monetary system, no dividing line, no false construct to tell our fellow man that they are less or more than anyone else. not that people are without but that the whole meaning of money has vanished. that we have somehow solved our self created caste system and can now start fresh with love, hope and celebration. its a dream of humanity’s V-DAY… and the party we know would pop off.”
The video envisions a society celebrating the fact that the class system we currently exist within has finally imploded. Money is worthless, and we have rejected the desire to bind ourselves to the constraints of capitalism. All creeds and colors unite to burn the system that has so effectively controlled us for over a century. It’s a party, and if there was a song to celebrate the end of the world as it is currently known, “ooh la la” is that song. Mike’s last verse features a few metaphors and comparisons celebrating the destruction of capitalism, saving the most poignant for last:
I used to love Bruce, but livin' my vida loca Helped me understand I'm probably more of a Joker When we usher in chaos, just know that we did it smiling Cannibals on this island, inmates run the asylum
Premo’s expertly cut scratches lead us into the equally hard hitting sample flip of “Misdemeanor”, by Foster Stevens as the basis for the beat to “out of sight”. Lending yet another nod to the old-school greats that laid the foundation for RTJ, “out of sight” samples the same track as The D.O.C.’s “It’s Funky Enough”, only adding a bouncy, electronic synth atop the inverted chord hits, and uptempo, industrial drums, to create an absolutely infectious groove for Mike and El’s dynamic chemistry to shine, rapidly jumping between each other’s two line flows in the first verse. “out of sight” shows each MC providing insight into how each of them earned a living and achieved their current status. Mike and El’s opening verse each details themselves robbing people in order to eat. El alludes to the fact that he crossed his accomplices in crime for the whole bag, while Mike details the fact his assailant tells him it’s an “honor” to be robbed by his mother’s only son. While El-P’s production is the obvious stand out on first listen, Killer Mike comes through with one of the most sonically pleasing and technically proficient verses of 2020.
We the motivating, devastating, captivating Ghost and Rae relating product of the fuckin' '80s Coke dealin' babies, never regulating, bag accumulating It would not be overstating to say they are underrating The pride of Brooklyn and the Grady, baby We don't need no compliments or confidence Our attitude and latitude is "fuck you, pay me"
The dense, intricate rhyme schemes smack you in the face, almost distracting you from Mike’s delivery and blistering flow on the verse; flexing his legendary status while paying homage to his drug-dealing past. This absolutely stunning display of technical skill, story telling, and complex rhyming illustrates how RTJ seamlessly integrates the best of both old school and new school hip-hop. “out of sight” also features a guest verse from 2 Chainz, and he continues to lay the braggadocio on thick. Considering Tity Boi’s dedication to trap stylings, his verse feels right at home on the flex track, despite it’s late 80’s tribute sample, a considerable departure from his usual sound palette. Up until this point, I haven’t mentioned any of the El-P’s lyrics specifically. El-P is a great rapper, but Killer Mike… Well, Killer Mike is an incredible rapper. He’s the guy who draws you in. El-P is the one who lays the foundation for greatness and Mike is the show stopper, and that’s generally the case for most RTJ tracks. But on “holy calamafuck”, El-P seems determined to make people stop and ask, “Who the fuck is this?!”. A sharp, yet nearly minimalistic drum kit backing a heavily distorted synthesizer melody lays beneath rhymically knocking cow-bells. This aggressively set stage allows Mike and El to flex as the dynamic duo they are, until the beat suddenly takes a turn for the chaotic. A gnarled, ultra-menacing synth overtakes everything while Mike screams into the abyss, until a distorted snare, enormous 808s, and skeletal hi-hats cut through and launch the beat switch into another dimension. The minimal, yet incredibly dark soundscape allows El-P to snap in a way I have never heard from him previously. His rhymes schemes are reminiscent of an old MF DOOM lyric notebook, while his topics flawlessly combine flexing, psychedelic use, and his well-cemented legacy in the hip-hop community. Cutting and pasting a few of his bars into this review could not convey a fraction of how stunning El-P’s performance on “holy calamafuck” is. Slightly later in the track list, making liberal use of the Ether song “Gang of Four”, “the ground below” samples and loops the sharp guitar riff and adds aggressive, pounding drums as the basis for the beat; this is finally reminiscent of the forward-thinking, stridulous production El-P has built his reputation on. Capitalising on the classic RTJ moment, Mike and El both flex in their own unique ways. Mike compares himself to Godzilla taking on Tokyo, and El-P demands respect for his name as the legend he is, threatening to smack dying children for mispronouncing his name with his middle finger to the world; his complete disregard for human life and confidence in his abilities are summed up at the end of his verse.
You see a future where Run the Jewels ain’t the shit Cancel my Hitler-killing trip Turn the time machine back around a century
SO¢IAL JU$T-ICE (until my voice go from a shriek to whisper...) While the first few tracks aren’t without their social and political themes, the back-end of RTJ4 is where Mike and El start to bust out the heavy topics. “goonies vs. E.T.”. starts off light, with El-P pointing to the irony of how once he finally started to make it “big” in the industry, the world began to descend into chaos due to climate changes, increasingly obvious social injustice, and political madness. He culminates his frustration with our disregard for the Earth with a fantastic quotable.
Fuck y’all got, another planet on stash? Far from the fact of the flames and our trash That is not snow, it is ash, and you gotta know The past got a wrath, it’s a lover gone mad
Mike’s verse takes the light-hearted frustration expressed by El-P, and turns the aggression to the next level. Aiming his sights against the ruling class and their society that’s been designed to oppress people for profit, who have very meticulously painted themselves as celebrities and idols to the American public. Mike accepts that he will be villainized by these people for speaking against them, but he welcomes the nefarious role, knowing that the working class will eventually eat the rich, no matter how much they are stomped into the dirt. And this is just the warmup. If it’s possible for a song to represent a moment in time that captures the absolute shit storm that has been 2020, “walking in the snow” is that song. It’s release coincided perfectly with the protests for George Floyd which were sweeping the nation. Killer Mike’s verse directly references the phrase “I can’t breathe”, the last words of Eric Garner, which also happened to be the last words of Floyd as well. The fact that this verse was reportedly written in November 2019 perpetually underscores the importance of the content and perfectly represents how persistent this problem is. “walking in the snow” is a true encapsulation of both a defining moment in time and an ever-persisting issue. But he doesn’t just stop at the racial injustice. Mike goes on an absolute rant about the American education system; how it’s not designed to teach people, but to discriminate against poor populations, limiting their legitimate opportunities, and therefore disproportionately leading them into a criminal lifestyle. He calls out the media as fear-mongers, and the apathy of the American public in the face of indecency. Fortunately for Mike, by the time we finally had the chance to hear this masterpiece, we were already on our feet, using this album as a war cry to mobilize against a tyrannical government that militarized against its own citizens simply for asking that we recognize systemic racism and demanding change. Killer Mike has the best verse of the year, no doubt in my mind. The only drawback is that Mike’s verse is so fucking good that it completely overshadows El-P’s, which is also amazing. A menacing guitar riff and haunting synths kick the track off into a bouncy groove, where El-P unleashes a flurry of internal rhymes that does not relent for about half his verse. Even adding layers of social commentary within the densely packed bars, El refuses to quit and continues on his political tirade; criticizing ICE’s detainment center practices and the “pseudo-Christians” who support them, with a bar that now lives in my head:
Pseudo-Christians, y’all indifferent, kids in prison ain’t a sin? Shit if even one scrap of what Jesus taught connected you’d feel different what a disingenuous way to piss away existence, I don’t get it I’d say you lost your goddamn minds if y’all possessed one to begin with
The combination of two of the best verses spit by any rapper(s) this year and production help from El-P and long time RTJ collaborator Little Shalimar, create a bouncy, aggressive, deeply truthful banger. “walking in the snow” not only encapsulates the crux of 2020 with lyrics that will become more powerful as they age, but will also forever be associated with the Black Lives Matter movement and the determination to expose continuing racial and societal injustices. The sonic palette of RTJ4 holds an extremely unique place in El-P’s discography. Jamie is the definition of a self-made 90’s hip-hop legend. This is the dude who put New York underground hip-hop on the map with Company Flow, and he did it with his unique flavor of dark, noisy, dense, boom-bap. Whether he was doing it with the help of Rawkus, or completely independently during his Definitive Jux run, El-P has never made music with the intention of becoming famous. Funcrusher Plus, Fantastic Damage,I’ll Sleep When You’re Dead, and Cancer 4 Cure are all highly revered as industrial, technical, abrasive, and completely unsuitable for the radio or a party. The fact that three songs on RTJ4 could easily be heard on the radio, at a party, or in a TV series credits scene is frankly, astounding. In a 2002 interview/documentary on El-P’s budding record label Def Jux, he stated that his friend bet him $500 that he could not make a beat that was “happy”. At the time of the interview, El-P said that he had not won that bet yet. While I might not qualify the beats on RTJ4 as “happy”, if you showed El-P the beat for “JU$T” in 2002, I believe he might have won that bet. Pharell opens “JU$T” with the pre-chorus, spitting varied examples of how we’re all slaves to our current system throughout the track, over echoing snares and bouncy 808s before bright synth chords and up-tempo hi-hats burst in while Killer Mike delivers the chorus, pointing to the fact that the majority of the people featured on American currency owned slaves at one point in their lives. Mike’s verse touches on the fact that he has committed crimes to get where they are today. Mike is publicly open about his past as a drug dealer. So why is he a criminal, but Benjamin Franklin isn’t? These are the people who built our country, and they built it on the backs of slaves. He illustrates this theme with a more recent examples:
You believe corporations runnin marijuana? Ooh (how that happen?) and your country gettin ran by a casino owner (ooh) pedophiles sponsor all these fuckin’ racist bastards (they do)
When corporations are able to sell cannabis legally, but the government continually incarcerates people who trap, our president is a notoriously fraudulent businessman, and the people who helped put him in power run a pedophile ring, yet none of them face consequences and are allowed to continue to profit and remain in power while people suffer; well, we might be closer to slaves than previously imagined. Rage Against The Machine frontman Zach de la Rocha also makes his mandatory feature appearance at the end of “JU$T”. As the only artist to feature on three Run The Jewels albums, Zach is essentially an unofficial member of the group at this point. His fiery verse is spit with the same “Rage” energy that set him apart in the mid-90’s, ending the track questioning his place in a capitalist society as a recipe for his inevitable demise, since his “breath”, or art, as his weapon to express himself is still being exploited for other’s profit. Continuing with RTJ4’s heavily synthetic sonic palette, “never look back” features wavering synth leads resting above the slow-jams snappy snares and thumping bass, while a haunting voice echoes in the background. This unsettling aura provides additional gravity for Jamie and Mike to continue self-reflecting on defining moments in their childhood, and as well as how far they’ve come from those moments. Mike and El are both self-made men, and while they have a certain fondness for those gritty moments that defined them, moving forward in life is undoubtedly more important. Skeletal drums reminiscent of a slowly pounding heart opens “pulling the pin”, before rhythmic hi-hats and textured, watery synths fluttering in the upper register resting above a bouncy synth lead, and punchy 808s, burst in. The track digs itself into a slower, marching groove and shows the duo figuratively doing exactly what the title implies. Painting a portrait of a society that has turned on itself, Mike and El are ready to pull the pin and start over. The duo both detail their despise for the ruling class, pointing out multiple examples of how the elite have designed our society to keep poor people in their class. Simultaneously recognizing their own hypocrisy for profiting in a system that inherently discriminates; Mike reflects on his own success, knowing that living the lifestyle he enjoys is one built on oppression, and expresses the guilt that has caused him. El-P opens with a brutal metaphor for police, implying that they’re the root cause of the “wretched state of danger” our society exists within, and that the only effective corrective action is to numb yourself with drugs. Despite his advice, Jamie knows this is not a permanent solution, but one that causes more self-inflicted wounds. The final piece of the puzzle that is RTJ4, “a few words for the firing squad” begins to close the album with ever crescending strings, and loud, thunderous drums which never seem to resolve, continuing throughout their verses. While the drums that lead to nowhere can be sonically unpleasant, the unresolved melodies are intentionally representative of their current mindsets. Their verses are reflective and grim, but simultaneously optimistic and envisions a world where tragedy is a less common occurrence. El is grateful for what he has now but recognizes his entire life has been skewed by traumas, so out of place feels normal for him. He reflects on his current success, noting that the worst people tend to end up with the most, which makes becoming “rich” something not as desirable as it once was. Mike opens up about the death of his mother who died while he was on an airplane, admitting his struggles to not cope with his trauma with opioids. However, his wife provides him the most important reason to stay clean “but my queen/say she need a king/not another junkie rapper fiend” while a heartbreaking saxophone solo highlights the gravity of his lyrics. The track ends with what sounds the like wrap-up voiceover to a TV show, a conceptually satisfying ending, as the opening track “yankee and brave (ep.4)” began with El-P stating:
”This week, on Yankee and The Brave”
This voiceover paints the duo as brothers on the run from the law and crooked cops, and while this does close this “episode” out as intended, the critic in me is bothered by the slightly kitschy outro to such a spectacular album. The voices singing over and over, “Brave, brave, braaaaaave, Yankee and the Brave” would be, simply put, better left on the cutting room floor. The ending of this track alone is what knocks my score of this album down a few points. Despite its stellar lyrical content, with drums that never seem to reach that “holy shit!” moment, and the easily skippable outro, it’s upsetting to me that an album this great ends on such a low note. Overview RTJ4 is by far my favorite album of the year. El-P’s cutting edge approach to their sound, blended with lyrical content that continues to be more relevant by the day, the duo have come together with what is objectively their most accessible album to date. RTJ4 is the natural evolution of sound and subject matter for the duo; taking the foundation set by Run The Jewels 3 and evolving it into a more concise, more accessible, and more conceptual album. While I still personally prefer the “fuck the world” intensity and experimental nature of Run The Jewels 2, RTJ4 opens themselves up to a whole new world of exposure, and when you’re as talented as these two, you know they’re going to capitalize on it. RTJ is currently at their apex, and they’ve created an album that will make many new life-long fans going forward. 9.2/10 Discussion Points
How does this compare to other RTJ releases? How about in comparison to the member’s solo works?
Does the overwhelmingly positive critical reception of this album surprise you?
Who killed notorious 1940s gangster Benjamin ‘Bugsy’ Siegel, the father of modern Las Vegas? Was it another mob boss? The lover of his best friend's wife? One of the men he was embezzling money from? His Mafia spy girlfriend? His own bosses? The possibilities are endless—and puzzling.
(Note: be warned, kind of long background info here, but I think it’s needed) As far as interesting lives, few can beat Benjamin ‘Bugsy’ Siegel. Born February 28, 1906 in Brooklyn, New York, Siegel came from a poor Jewish family. Before he was even twenty, he’d established a profitable protection racket and a lengthy rap sheet, including armed robbery, rape, and murder. Siegel had connections—he was childhood friends with Al Capone and familiar with many of the well known New York City mobsters of the day—and he also had a taste for violence. Soon, he’d established a small mob specializing in hits for the numerous bootleg gangs of the time with Meyer Lansky, a fellow mobster. His violence and short temper led some to say he was “crazy as a bedbug,” giving him his famous nickname ‘Bugsy,’ which he even more famously despised. Siegel was making money, which he was happy to flaunt, but he wanted more. He carried out several hits for Charles “Lucky” Luciano, and eventually formed Murder Inc. with his associates, establishing himself as a skilled hitman for the National Crime Syndicate, an organization of mob families. But Siegel was already making enemies, and several assassination attempts were made on his life, some of which came very close to being successful. So, it was time to move out west. In California, Siegel helped establish gambling rackets, drug trade routes, and prostitution rings. His star was rising outside of the Underworld too, and in addition to the numerous politicians and police on his payroll, he befriended stars like Cary Grant and Clark Gable. Incredibly, while in Italy with a socialite in 1938, he met Hermann Goering and Joseph Goebbels, whom he immediately disliked and offered to kill. The offer was declined by his lady friend. Yet Siegel was not always looked upon fondly by the upper echelons of Hollywood; he borrowed exorbitantly from celebrities, knowing he would never be asked to pay it back, and began to develop extensive plans to extort movie studios. After several trials and acquittals for failed and successful hits, it was time to leave California. Siegel’s next stop was Las Vegas where, in 1945, he purchased and developed the Flamingo Hotel & Casino, the first luxury hotel on the Vegas strip. As you might imagine, that was expensive, and over the course of its construction, costs were equivalent to over $61 million in today’s money each year. Siegel’s checks were bouncing, and many of the locals felt threatened by him. Mob bosses were beginning to lose patience with Siegel too, and he was refusing to report on business, claiming he was running the California Syndicate himself. For now, they left him alone—he'd been valuable in the past, after all. The Flamingo Hotel was a dismal failure, and people—very powerful people—were starting to get tired of waiting for the promised money to materialize. By 1947, it was gradually turning around—with the help of Meyer Lansky, now in Vegas—but for most, it was too little too late. Death: On June 20, 1947, Siegel was gunned down in the Beverly Hills home of his sometimes-girlfriend Virginia Hill. He was 41. Somewhat suspiciously, Hill had taken an unscheduled flight to Paris the day (or by some sources, week) before. As Siegel sat reading the newspaper with associate Allen Smiley, an unknown assailant fired with a .30 caliber military M1 carbine through the window, striking Siegel many times (NSFW). Two shots hit his head, with one passing through his right cheek and the other his nose. Though he was not hit directly through the eye (NSFW), a bullet-in-the-eye death became a popular trope in Mafia media, including in the Godfather, where a character based on Siegel is murdered in the same manner. The death was covered extensively in the media, which portrayed Vegas as a bastion of sin and mafia activity. As early as the day after Siegel’s death (or, as some sources have it, during Siegel’s death), however, more personal things were changing: Lansky walked into the Flamingo and took over operations. Theories: The mob is famously tight-lipped, and Siegel’s death was no exception. Despite the extensive speculation, no precise motive has ever been confirmed. There was a massive police investigation, but in a case like this, that doesn’t mean much, nor does the media coverage. The media in particular salivated over the potential for splashy crime stories, and the circumstances of this case have been complicated by contemporary coverage. Several days after Siegel’s death, for example, one newspaper ran the headline “BUGSY'S BLONDE EX-WIFE GIVES CLUES TO HIS KILLERS,” while another read “BUGSY'S EX NO AID IN HUNT.” As far as the most popular theories: A Mob hit: A mob hit seems like the most obvious cause, and it's a theory that’s been popularized by several novels and the 1991 movie Bugsy. It would certainly make sense; it was the mob’s money Siegel had been spending wildly on his unsuccessful hotel after all, and he’d been growing uncooperative. Of the proposed hitmen, the most often mentioned are Frankie Carbo (Ralph Natale, former Philadelphia boss and Mob squealer, claimed Carbo as the true killer) and Eddie Cannizarro, both Syndicate hitmen. But even here, there are several proposed reasons for the hit. As some have it, mob money from the Flamingo’s funding was going missing and Siegel was skimming off the already meager profits. Skimming could have been forgiven, if the Flamingo was a success. It was not. After a meeting of the Syndicate’s “Board of Directors,” it was allegedly decided that Siegel would die, with Lansky reluctantly agreeing. Others believe that a hit might have been ordered whether Siegel was skimming or not; the Flamingo was simply too expensive. As one historian put it, “Bugsy was a dreamer. And he was dreaming with other people’s money.” Yet many have also argued against this theory. According to one of Siegel’s emissaries in Vegas, for example, no one would have dared to order a hit on Siegel. He and Lansky were close until the end of their lives, and Lansky would never have agreed to it. And if Lansky would not agree, then Charles “Lucky” Luciano, who was “the head of everything,” would never have agreed either. And as others have argued, the method of execution (NSFW) didn’t match with typical mob methods; firing a weapon from outside a house increased the risk of missing as well as the risk of being seen. The preferred method was a clean shot to the back of the head. According to some, the oft-referenced money problems of the Flamingo also wasn’t an issue. At the time, Lansky was paying back any investor who wanted out, and the gradual uptick in its profits was quickening by the day. Personally, I don’t think the financial uptick invalidates the theory. If the hotel was starting to make more money, then that might be all the more reason to get rid of the difficult-to-manage Siegel and take over. Wire Business: At the time of his death, Siegel was embroiled in a dispute with Jack Dragna, dubbed the Capone of Los Angeles. Siegel and Dragna had had an uneasy partnership in previous years, but Dragna, far less powerful than Siegel and the New York gangs, resented the income and respect Siegel commanded. This came to a head when a racing wire service (a way of cheating on bets) between the two of them soured. Siegel wanted control for himself, and ordered Dragna to turn it over or be killed, to which Dragna agreed. After Siegel’s death, control was returned to Dragna. He had a motive, but his story would only have been one among many for a man as ruthless as Siegel, which, in a way, complicates things further—there’s a real possibility that the culprit in Siegel’s murder was someone never even considered. His list of enemies was long, varied, and probably mostly unknown. Yet another man who had reason to want Siegel dead, for example, was his bodyguard and muscle Mickey Cohen. A Cleveland gangster, Cohen was given control of the Syndicate’s West Coast gambling operations. If Siegel still lived, he would never have gotten it. Interestingly, he, like Al Capone before him, was eventually felled by tax evasion. Virginia and/or brother: The same emissary of Siegel who shot down the mob hit theory believed that Virginia Hill’s brother had carried out the murder. The brother, a marine stationed at Camp Pendleton named Bob or Bill, had seen Siegel and Virginia fighting outside the Flamingo as well as the bruises Siegel had left on her and threatened to kill him. Another of Virginia’s brothers, Chuck, was also at the Beverly Hills house when Siegel was murdered. Virginia herself has also been the subject of suspicion. Nicknamed the “Queen of the Mob,” Hill worked, among other powerful jobs, as a cash courier, laundering money and stolen goods as well as blackmailing high-ranking men through sexual liaisons. Her relationship with Siegel was tempestuous at best, and she may have been embezzling from the Flamingo. She’s also been accused of two-timing with rival mob operations, though this is unconfirmed. Eventually fleeing to Europe permanently, Hill died of an overdose in 1966, though some have alleged that she was actually murdered after she, completely broke, attempted to leverage her intimate knowledge of the Mob. Rival Mobs: Unfortunately, I can’t find much concrete information about this theory (note: story of my life researching these posts haha), but some believe that rival mob operatives wanted Siegel gone. He was a powerful—and very public—figure, which made him something of an obvious target in the cut-throat world of Mafia politics. Moe Sedway: This is a relatively new theory, emerging after Robbie Sedway was interviewed for LA Magazine after his mother’s death. Here, he alleged that Siegel’s murder was ordered by his mother Bee, the wife of powerful mobster—and childhood friend of Siegel’s—Moe Sedway. According to Bee, who wrote and scrapped a book proposal called Bugsy's Little Lunatic (Siegel’s nickname for her), Siegel had threatened her husband, who was the Flamingo’s numbers man, and therefore watching Siegel—who, remember, had been accused of skimming—closely. So Bee contacted Mathew “Moose” Pandza, a truck driver whom Bee married after Moe’s death. Moose, the perfect killer, since he had no connection to the Mob, then shot Siegel to death. The problem with this theory, however, is that Bee is the only source; as she herself said, anyone who could contradict her was dead. She also squandered most of the fortune left to her by Moe over the course of her life, and died almost penniless. All of the above: Some believe that almost all the suspects were involved. Usually, it goes something like this: “Virginia supplied the location and received some reward. Cohen knew Bugsy's schedule for the evening, but happened to not be watching him that night…Dragna ordered the hit, with the approval of Lansky and Luciano.” It’s unlikely, but it certainly has its believers, if only for the convenience of it. Final Thoughts & Questions: This case is interesting to me because of the sheer number of suspects. In the end, a mob hit seems the simplest and most likely explanation. But there were so many people with means, motive, and opportunity. So:
Why was Siegel killed and who killed him? The Syndicate, rival mobs, Virginia Hall, her brother, Mickey Cohen, Jack Dragna, Mathew Pandza (as ordered by Moe and/or Bee Sedway), several of the suspects, or someone else entirely?
The black nobility is the base of the global crime syndicate that controls this planet. The black nobility or black aristocracy are the aristocratic families that sided with the papacy under Pope Pius IX after the army of the Kingdom of Italy led by the Savoy family entered Rome on September 20, 1870, overthrew the pope . and the Papal States, and took over the Quirinal Palace, and the nobles later ennobled by the Pope prior to the Lateran Treaty of 1929. Any family that produced popes for the Vatican is royalty. Most of the black nobility are Vatican royalty. The black nobility consider themselves sovereign princes. These families earned the title of "black" nobility for their relentless unscrupulousness. They used murder, rape, kidnapping, robbery and all kinds of deception on a large scale, without resisting the achievement of their objectives. The black nobility were the families that financed and created the holy corporation of the Vatican with the aim of imposing world slavery as a necessary institution, with the sole belief that some are born to rule and others to be ruled. The idea that certain families were born to rule as an arbitrary elite, while the vast majority of a given population is condemned to oppression, servitude, or slavery became the theological position of this elite. The "New World Order" is an attempt to take control of society by these fascist families with the purpose of the total slavery of humanity. The Vatican is an imperial nation and is the largest empire in this world. The Vatican City, or the Holy Vatican Corporation, officially the Vatican City State, is a nation that operates as the largest intelligence network in the world. The Holy See is the "All-Seeing Eye" in society and a corporate entity connected to many other corporations and governments through papal and royal statutes. Archbishops and high-level bishops are the overseers of society within their districts and oversee politics, police, business, and organized crime. The same year that the professor of ecclesiastical law and practical philosophy at the University of Ingolstadt, Adam Weishaupt, created the Order of the Illuminati, was the same year that they created the United States as a corporation to run it as their private army and lead I dig the agenda of a "New World Order" for the elites, mainly, thanks to the infiltrated Freemasonry and directed by the Jesuits. The New World Order is a conspiracy of lineage at the top. They are ancient and evil bloodlines that build and destroy empires for control through an order out of chaos. Royal and noble houses are corporate entities and claim to rule and own land, resources, and people. Landlords have always been the dominant owners of gold and precious metals. They empower and finance bankers and entrepreneurs to work for them through their corporate homes. They authorize and issue the creation of laws, agencies, the military, companies, and universities. They create and run religions and secret societies. They also finance and organize organized crime syndicates as if they were commercial enterprises. Some of the major royal bloodlines include Savoy, Bourbon, Medici, Glücksburg, Wittelsbach, Nassau-Weilberg, Saxe-Coburg and Gotha, Romanov, Grimaldi, Orleans, Braganza, Habsburg, Hannover, Windsor, Saud, Thani, Khalifa, Alouwite , Zogu, Hohenzollern, Orange-Nassau, Bonaparte and Bernadotte. Many royal bloodlines still rule their nations as heads of state such as the United Kingdom, Belgium, the Netherlands, Denmark, Monaco, Spain, Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, Morocco, Sweden, Norway, and Luxembourg. The Vatican City State is also a kingdom with the Pope of Rome as its monarch. The Black Nobility are the ancient bloodlines of the Papal States and they own the Holy See and the Vatican. They produced the first popes of Rome and held leadership positions in the Vatican from its inception. The Colonna and Torlonia still hold the hereditary positions of the Assistant Princes to the Papal Throne. The black nobility consider themselves sovereign princes. The Vatican is used as a central point of control and the Holy See is one of the oldest and most criminal corporate entities in existence. The Spanish Catholic Church is immensely rich, it has not suffered the crisis and also enjoys a true tax haven, being free to pay taxes, such as the IBI, works, companies, etc. The vast majority of the assets in their possession and on their accounts are completely opaque. This situation is illegitimate, unfair and presumably illegal, and this occurs with the complicity and consent of the public powers. The Erlach and Brandi families are Swiss tax advisers who enable corruption, bribery, criminal financing, and money laundering. The Swiss Guard is the one that protects the Vatican City State. The Swiss cantons have been in contract with the Vatican for centuries and Switzerland is basically a papal state with the noble Roman saints claiming partial ownership. The German house of Baden-Zahringen founded Bern, in Switzerland. The House of Savoy ruled the regions of Switzerland for hundreds of years. Some of the most important bloodlines of the Black Nobility are: Massimo, Colonna, Pallavicini, Odescalchi, Ruspoli, Orsini, Aldobrandini, Sforza-Cesarini, Boncompagni-Ludovisi, Chigi-Albani-Della Rovere, Doria-Pamphilj, Rospigliosi, Giustiniani , Torlonia, Corsini, Borghese, Del Drago, Lucchesi-Palli, and Gaetani. The Pecci and Pacelli families are more recent bloodlines of the Black Nobility. The black nobility share ownership over the Holy See, which is a corporate entity based in the Vatican City State that was established as a nation in 1929 under Benito Mussolini, who was put in power by the House of Savoy. The Mussolini and Franco families became nobles after their fascist regimes. The Black Nobility also owns the Knights of Malta, the Jesuits, and the Cosa Nostra. The Black Nobility established branches in southern Italy and married Sicilian-Campanian nobles such as the Lanza di Scalea, Adragna, Sanseverino, Tomasi di Lampedusa, Paterno, Cattaneo, Serena di Lapigio and Rocco di Torrepadula families. Many Italian crime families were Sicilian nobles like the Bonanno and Bellomo families. Both the mafia bosses and the Italian and Spanish nobles call themselves Dons, which is the equivalent of Boos (boss) of crime. The Savoy, Savoy-Aosta, Medici, Borbon-Dos Sicilias, and Borbon-Parma families are members of Italian royalty and are married to various European royal bloodlines and Black Nobility. Most of the monarchs are members of the Sovereign Military Order of Malta. Prince Carlo Massimo has been overseeing the Sovereign Military Order of Malta as President of the Italian Association of SMOM. The Knights of Malta have an undercover operation at the Jesuit School of Foreign Service in Georgetown, run by Joel Hellman. The Jesuits and the Knights of Malta basically run the Defense Department alongside British Crown agents and high-level Freemasons. Prince Carlo de Borbón-Dos Sicilias is a high commander of the Society of Jesus through his Sacred Constantinian Military Order of Saint George. The Jesuits were authorized by Pope Paul III of the Farnese family. The Bourbon-Dos Sicilias and Borbon-Parma families are the continuation of the Farnese family, the name Farnesivs is engraved in the Jesuit headquarters called the Church of Gesu in Rome. The Farnese family lived in a pentagonal fortress called Farnese Villa Caprarola, which is the basis for the design of the American Pentagon. Jesuits are involved in education, politics, banking, science, law, and especially military intelligence. The Italian Bourbons have established residences all over the world, including Florida. Jesuits need to be investigated and banned, they have rightly been expelled from almost every country in the world, but they always end up coming back. In Spain three times, his last return was at the hands of General Franco. The Holy See is a corporate body that issues laws and bills, such as the Golden Bull, which claims ownership of the Kingdom of England and identifies the emperor as the sovereign of the only legitimate universal empire, directly chosen by God. The Pope claims temporal power or ownership over the Earth and also claims Papal Supremacy or Papal Rule and Papal Infallibility. Infallibility means incapable of being wrong. The Roman Curia or Papal Court is the highest organized council in society and is directly supervised by the two “Assistants of the Prince to the Pontifical Throne”, these two positions are held by the princes of the Colonna and Torlonia families. They work with a higher level princely council of the Italian nobility that works with another council made up of the Roman nobility. The Italian and Austrian nobility are married to each other and work closely together leading the Sovereign Military Order of Malta, which is a sovereign entity equivalent to that of a sovereign nation. The Italian Nobility, La Cosa Nostra and the German and Austrian Nobles, run the Jewish Mafia. Royalty and nobles have massive amounts of wealth in private bank accounts in Switzerland. They use the Nazi-founded Bank for International Settlements to steal wealth from central banks through fraudulent tax contracts and then launder and hide the wealth in private bank accounts in Switzerland. The main Italian lineages still active include the Massimo, Colonna, Pallavicini, Torlonia, Aldobrandini, Ruspoli, Orsini, Gaetani-D'Aragona, Borbón-Parma, Odescalchi, Borghese, Adragni, Chigi, Medici, Borromeo, Doria-Pamphilj, Sacchetti, Savoy, Grimaldi and Bourbon. These bloodlines oversee the various specters of society. Outside of this power structure is the Committee of 300 with an inner circle made up of the leading monarchs and princes of Europe and the former Holy Roman Empire with members from Windsor, Spencer, Cecil, Percy, Hohenlohe-Langenburg, Habsburg, Bonaparte, Orleans, Bernadotte, Lagergren, Glucksburg, Hannover, Furstenberg, Austria-East, Hohenberg, Hesse, Nassau-Weilberg, Habsburg-Lorraine, Saxe Coburg and Gotha, Saxony-Weimar-Eisenach, Saxony-Meiningen, Braganza, Orange-Nassau, Hohenzollern , Hohenzollern-Sigmaringen, Liechtenstein, Rothschild, FitzJames, Lobkowicz, Ligne, Merode, Romanov, Thurn and Taxis, Schwarzenberg, Orsini-Rosenberg, Windisch-Graetz, Esterhazy and other families. Many members who do not have noble status on the Committee of 300 are representatives of the royal families. These families are all enemies of humanity and have conspired to enslave the world for centuries. They authorize and create corporations and billionaires, run religions, states, secret societies, the mafia, and organized crime syndicates. Royal families in Europe are mainly divided into two factions, and this dates back to the Guelph merchants and Ghibelline landowners. All other groups like Bilderberg, CFR, and the Trilateral Commission are lower-level organizations. All roads lead to Rome, which is the basis of its control system. The European Constitutional Monarchies are branches of the corporate empire of Rome. Constitutional Monarchies are ruled by blood-appointed heads of state and serve Rome through the Sovereign Military Order of Malta. The Pope claims temporary or physical ownership of the Earth. The Pope claims to be infallible of error. The Pope claims ownership over all souls through the papal doctrine of "Papal Supremacy." The Pope is a leader for the Black Nobility of Italy. The Jesuits are a military priesthood officially established by Pope Paul III A.K. to Alessandro Farnese of the Farnese family. The Jesuits were officially established under the Papal Bull called Regimini Militantis Ecclesiae, which means Military Regiment of the Church as the continuation of the Templars. The Black Nobles are the true owners and controllers of the Vatican and maintain their control throughout the centuries by installing their relatives as high-level popes and bishops. At present the Torlonia and Colonna families who have the hereditary positions of Prince Assistants to the Papal Throne are those who supervise the pope. In turn Pope Francis supervises all members of the Catholic Church and also supervises the various secret societies that are connected with the Church. The Jesuits are also a Masonic order and were the continuation of the Templar orders when they were banned. The Roman Catholic Church mocks Christians by performing rituals where they pretend to drink blood and eat human flesh known as the Eucharist, also called Holy Sacrifice. The New Testament did not exist until about 1600 and the Old Testament is even more recent than the new. It was the Vatican and European monarchs who created both the New and the Old Testaments. The last official version of the bible was published in 1777. The bishops and priests operate as supervisors and the Jesuits function as spies trained in deception and are infiltrated everywhere. The Pope claims temporal power or ownership over the Earth and also claims Papal Supremacy or Papal Rule and Papal Infallibility. Infallibility means incapable of being wrong. Archbishops are the overseers of society within their districts and oversee politics, police, business, and organized crime. The Latin phrase Novus Ordo Seclorum means New Order of Ages (or Ages), or also "New World Order", and is on the US dollar bill and Great Seal of the United States. The Vatican uses Latin as an official language and for documents. America is named after the Italian Americo Vespucci who worked for the Medici family of Florence and Rome. Vespucci created the term New World for America. The Bank of America was originally called the Bank of Italy and was founded by Amadeo Giannini, who was financed by Italians. Nations were formed as companies or corporations to exploit their citizens as merchandise. Corporations are fraudulent constructions because they are considered a person with rights under the law, and because the owners and controllers of the corporations can disregard responsibility for crimes committed by the corporation. That is fraudulent. Corporations are not people and therefore cannot have rights. Corporations are also monopolies that use subsidiaries to hide their dominance over industry. Private companies cannot compete fairly with corporations. Citizens are also classified as legal persons (companies), robbing them of all their human rights. Corporations shouldn't exist. Royalty and nobles issue charters establishing representative covert property agents controlled by corporate households or crowns of royalty and nobles. They claim to own foreign governments in this way. Royalty and nobles claim to own the United States as a continuation of the Virginia Company. Roman royalty such as the Hanover, Hesses, Wurttembergs, Hohenzollerns, Glucksburgs, Orange-Nassaus and Saxe-Coburg and Gothas claim a share of ownership over the British Crown. This is why the British royal family has so much German ancestry. The United States is defined as a federal corporation under US code 3002. Section 15. Most of the founding fathers were Freemasons and worked for the British Crown and German royalty. American political families, such as the Bushs, Clintons, Romneys, and Kennedys, take their names from European noble families that still exist. The Von Dem Bussche family are German nobles and relatives of the Bush family. The Clintons and Romneys are also British nobles. The Kennedys are Scottish-Irish nobles and an American political family involved with the Democratic Party.

European monarchies function as extensions of Rome and run secret societies that infiltrate government agencies and run corporations for monarchs. The Sovereign Military Order of Malta is the main military council and works closely with the Orders of St. John administered by Protestant royalty such as the Windsors and the Hohenzollerns. The Order of Malta and the Order of Saint John are Masonic organizations with grand masters and titles for initiation. The royal and noble bloodlines are all working together as a global crime syndicate and part of a modernized Roman corporate empire. They also have several competing factions that create the illusion of division. The British crown and Scottish nobles such as the Bruce, Stewart, Sinclair, Campbell, Montagu, Scott, Hamilton, Percy, Boyle, Bowes-Lyon and Sutherland families administer a large part of Freemasonry. All of these families produced Grand Masters of the Grand Lodge of England. There are thousands of Masonic lodges in Europe and in the United States. Freemasonry must be investigated and outlawed. The Greek-German Royal House of Glucksburg directs the Greek fraternities and brotherhoods and uses initiates as its agents. Glucksburg nobles and Italians run the Boule Society, Boule is a Greek fraternal society for African Americans. Martin Luther King and Jesse Jackson have been members of Boule, among many other high-profile, successful, and wealthy blacks, including Barack Obama, Bill Cosby, Al Sharpton, and Thurgood Marshall.

Sono troppo contento che mi avete votato come Best of 2020, se non lo scrivo mi sento male. Detto ciò, il mio viaggio nella storia del cinema prosegue con il 1969. 1969 Tra i volti emergenti dell’epoca ci sono: Edwige Fenech che compare in 8 film tra cui “Alle dame del castello piace molto fare quello”, che titolo; Florinda Bolkan con la sua criniera spettacolare, Michael Sarrazin dagli occhi celesti, Klaus Kinski sempre cattivissimo, Marilù Tolo, Beba Loncar, Enzo Cerusico e Lino Capolicchio, poi Helmut Berger, Peter Fonda, Dennis Hopper e Robert Duvall ovunque, papà Garko e papà Rossi Stuart, Raquel Welch, Dominique Sanda e Katharine Ross. C’è l’ultimo film di Elvis Presley (il suo periodo migliore coincide con quello di Doris Day e non a caso il declino dei due è stato coincidente, perché a fine anni '60 si percepisce proprio il gusto che cambia e i loro film sono fuori posto), e c’è l’unico 007 con George Lazenby con una incantevole Diana Rigg; nei musicarelli andavano Al Bano e Romina, Mal e Little Tony. Esordiscono Villaggio, Pippo Franco, Lino Banfi ma anche Anjelica Huston. Ci sono tanti drammoni di guerra oltre le 2 ore, che per me sono duri da digerire, idem i musical che durano tanto, tipo “Hello Dolly”, che non è male ma non finisce più e la Streisand è sempre di ¾ come Barbara d’Urso, mi è venuta la cervicale solo a vederla. Tra l’altro nemmeno all’epoca fu un grandissimo successo, anzi l’era dei musical classici praticamente finisce qui. Ovviamente abbondano gli spaghetti western, quanti ne volete tanti ce ne sono, con Terence Hill, Bud Spencer, Giuliano Gemma, Franco Nero, Anthony Steffen. Però il western che più mi è piaciuto è stato “Il Grinta”, che valse l’oscar a John Wayne. Tra le donne l’oscar invece andò a Maggie Smith che è strepitosa in “La strana voglia di Jean”. Col 1969 si possono vedere anche i primi film del baffuto Fassbinder, e i thriller di Chabrol, che mi sono piaciuti molto. In tv dalle nostre parti vanno sempre tanto gli sceneggiati, Canzonissima, Mike Bongiorno e cominciano a diffondersi i primi cartoni animati giapponesi tipo Mimì o il mitico Uomo Tigre che lotta contro il male, oltre alla Pantera Rosa e ad alcuni film per la tv che sono già confezionati meglio e sembrano meno di serie Z. C’è una miniserie sui Churchills, c’è la famiglia Brady, Pippi Calzelunghe, e il cult Scooby Doo. Esce poi un corto chiamato “The lottery” che è un bello choc, qui c’è un innocuo villaggio in cui una volta l’anno si tiene una tradizionale lotteria. Chi vince il primo premio viene lapidato da tutti gli altri partecipanti. Avete mai visto niente di più sconcertante? È su youtube. Nel 1969 sono sempre più frequenti le scene erotiche e i film sui triangoli sentimentali, sulla bisessualità, sul sadismo (vedi Femina ridens con Philippe Leroy che umilia in tutti i modi la schiava Dagmar Lassander), ma ce n’è per tutti i gusti, c’è in giro Divine, Sarno, Waters, ma anche il nudo-cult di Helen Mirren ancora lontana anni luce dalla fama (nel film Age of Consent), c’è Laura Antonelli, la serie di Emmanuelle e non parliamo poi dei film giapponesi in cui massacrano donne nude come se niente fosse. Ne hanno consumato un sacco di colore rosso in quell’anno lì. C’è un documentario che si chiama “il primo premio si chiama Irene” in cui c’è una parte ambientata in Danimarca con una coppia gay accettata in famiglia come se niente fosse e siamo nel 1969 non 2019! Roba da non credere. Il top del top nel genere però lo raggiunge Ken Russell nel film “Donne in amore” con la scena della lotta tra Alan Bates e Oliver Reed nudi che a quanto pare i due si erano scolati una bottiglia di vodka a testa per paura che l’altro ce l’avesse più grosso. Invece finisce in pareggio in un bagno di testosterone, e nemmeno io ho capito chi mi piace di più. Glenda Jackson pure ha un sacco di scene erotiche qui. Marlon Brando era assai in declino, aveva deciso di farsi i capelli biondi e sceglieva i film come lo sa solo lui: passa dal thriller a Gillo Pontecorvo, vallo a capire. C’è un film surreale di Robert Downey Senior (giustamente esiste un senior se c’è il junior), e il più figo è sempre Steve McQueen, ma attenzione Steve che Burt Reynolds è dietro l’angolo. Baby Kurt Russell è il Computer con le scarpe da tennis (fa tenerezza questo film è praticamente un’epoca morta e sepolta), e vanno in voga i film sullo spazio visto che questo è l’anno dell’uomo sulla Luna. Richard Burton è Enrico VIII e vede morta la giovane Bolena Bujold sotto gli occhi della gelosissima vera moglie Liz Taylor, che capitava sul set giusto tanto per marcare il territorio, poi Newman e Redford vanno in giro a fare i fuorilegge, c’è il memorabile viaggio di Easy Rider, e Pasolini e Visconti pure sono attivi, il primo gira Porcile e la Medea, unico film con la Callas e i suoi occhi tristissimi, il secondo con la caduta degli Dei, in cui c’è incesto, pedofilia, omicidio, omosessualità, insomma un film vietato ai minori di 18 anni con una strepitosa Ingrid Thulin che è quella che più mi è piaciuta di tutto il cast. Ci sono ben 2 Satyricon, uno di Fellini e uno di Polidoro, mentre Bergman mette i suoi attori preferiti in un quadrangolo pericoloso, “Passione”, e li intervista anche tra una scena e l’altra. Ok finalmente passiamo ai miei film preferiti di quest’anno. “Coming Apart” è un curioso film di Milton Moses Ginsberg con protagonista assoluto Rip Torn e un contorno di attrici tra cui la più nota è Sally Kirkland. Qui c’è Rip che ha messo una videocamera nascosta in salotto, così ogni ragazza che si porta a casa dopo lui che è anche psicanalista si rivede per bene tutta la scena. Noi con lui. Per cui qui c’è una sola inquadratura, c’è Torn vestito, seminudo, nudo, abbottonato, seduto, sdraiato, e la sfilza di amanti e amiche. Uno di quei film che non pensi che riesci a portare a termine e invece poi sì. “I temerari” di John Frankenheimer è un film con quelle vecchie volpi che erano Burt Lancaster e Deborah Kerr e con l’emergente Gene Hackman, un altro dei nomi cult di quest’anno. Ci sono tre paracadutisti che vanno in giro per la provincia americana a dare spettacolo con i loro lanci acrobatici. Il problema è che Lancaster ha i suoi pensieri per la mente, e a ogni lancio gli viene sempre il dubbio di non aprire il paracadute. Questo non va bene. Giunti nella cittadina successiva, sono ospiti della famiglia della Kerr, specialista in limonate fredde dato che altro non ha da fare. 15 anni dopo il bacio sulla spiaggia di Da qui all’eternità, i due hanno un momento di passione. Il marito della Kerr non batte ciglio: la moglie la conosce bene e lo sa che la deve lasciare libera. Lancaster spera che l’amante lo segua in giro nella sua tournee, per lui la Kerr è il paracadute che lo tiene attaccato alla vita, ma lei non è pronta. Il lancio che segue lascerà tutti a bocca aperta. “I brevi giorni selvaggi” di Frank Perry con i giovanissimi Barbara Hershey, Richard Thomas e Bruce Davison è un film in cui questi due adolescenti o poco più un giorno incontrano sulla spiaggia la Hershey, bellissima ed estroversa, e se ne innamorano al primo colpo. A lei sta bene questa situazione e i 3 flirtano tutta l’estate. Una ragazza con tutt’altro carattere (Catherine Burns) cerca di unirsi al trio per fare amicizia. Sì, è sveglia, magari anche simpatica, ma per i 3 è più una da prendere in giro quando non c’è altro di meglio da fare. Quando l’estate sta per volgere al termine le intenzioni dei 2 ragazzi sulla Hershey sono ormai troppo esplicite, e l’immaturità e la foga del momento spingono il trio affiatato a un atto di violenza sulla quarta ragazza, in una delle scene più disgraziate mai viste al cinema, che poi porta la malcapitata Burns alla nomination all’oscar al suo esordio. Girerà solo altri 2 film. “Ucciderò un uomo” è un thriller di Claude Chabrol con il protagonista che ha il figlio piccolo che viene investito da un balordo e muore. L’auto fugge, e nel silenzio dell’alba non ci sono testimoni, il crimine è lasciato quindi impunito. Già vedovo e ora privato del figlio, l’uomo impazzisce e il suo scopo nella vita è cercare l’assassino del figlio e ucciderlo. Impresa tutt’altro che facile, ma l’ostinazione lo portano a mettere insieme piccoli indizi e a trovare la donna che era in auto con l’assassino. Tra i due parte una relazione sempre più intensa che però ha un risvolto imprevisto: ora il novello Montecristo ha imparato a conoscere questa donna e ha anche capito che è tormentata dal rimorso, inoltre il carnefice è il cognato di lei, un essere spregevole: è cafone, bullo, volgare, egoista e fa anche schifo come padre. Troppo bello per essere vero, liberarsi di quest’uomo dovrebbe essere semplice, in fondo non c’è uno che lo vuole vivo. Ebbene… “Non torno a casa stasera” di FF Coppola pre-padrino con James Caan pre-padrino e Shirley Knight giovane e coinvolgente. La Knight ha lasciato il marito così da un giorno all’altro. È incinta ma non sa cosa fare, quindi si mette in macchina e parte. Si vede che non ha mai visto la tv, perché c’è un autostoppista e lei lo fa salire in auto. È mai capitato nella storia della cinematografia che far salire un autostoppista si è rivelata una buona idea? No, e in questo caso in auto ci va James Caan, ma attenzione, non è pericoloso, al contrario è un povero Cristo. Faceva l’atleta ma si è spaccato la testa e adesso è praticamente un bambolotto cresciuto che quello che gli dici quello fa. Shirley Knight un po’ ne è incuriosita e un po’ infastidita. Caan infatti è come una piattola, innocuo sì ma lei vuole sbarazzarsene, così lo porta da un conoscente affinché gli trovi lavoro. Andata via di corsa da questa rogna, viene fermata per eccesso di velocità. Il poliziotto è Robert Duvall pre-padrino, che vuole abbonarle la multa passando con lei una sera a casa. La Knight non ragiona e ci va, anche se questo vuol dire tornare di nuovo sul luogo dov’è Caan. La sera succede un casino, e ci scappa il morto. “La mia droga si chiama Julie” di Truffaut con Belmondo e Deneuve. Dunque Belmondo si sposa per corrispondenza. Per quanto difficile da credere non trova moglie e si è affidato agli annunci matrimoniali. Inutile dire che quando davanti si trova la Deneuve non crede ai suoi occhi ed è amore a prima vista. I due si sposano e vanno a vivere insieme. La Deneuve però è una fetentissima ladruncola, e fatto fesso Belmondo se ne va con tutto il suo conto in banca, che è pure tanto dato che Belmondo è imprenditore pieno di soldi. A questo punto Belmondo potrebbe maledire la moglie oppure mettersi sulle sue tracce, e così fa. Dopo un po’ la ritrova e fa per ammazzarla, ma stiamo pur sempre parlando di Catherine Deneuve al culmine del suo splendore, uno non clicca sul grilletto così facilmente, mi dispiace. E inoltre mancano ancora 30 minuti di film. “Quel freddo giorno nel parco” è uno dei primi film di Robert Altman con Sandy Dennis, icona assoluta della seconda metà degli anni ’60. Alla domanda dimmi l’attrice di cult di fine anni ’60 nomino la Dennis. Qui pare che Altman volesse la Bergman ma lei ha rifiutato lo script ritenendosi offesa del materiale. Così Altman lo passò alla Redgrave la quale suggerì il nome di Sandy Dennis. E così Sandy un giorno guarda dalla finestra e vede un ragazzo sotto la pioggia sulla panchina del parco, così zuppo che ne è mossa a compassione. Prende l’ombrello e va da lui offrendogli di entrare in casa ad asciugarsi. Il ragazzo ci sente, ma non parla, per la Dennis è perfetto: gli puoi dire tutto e non ti contraddice mai. Gli procura vestiti, un bagno caldo, la stanza degli ospiti, gli fa da mangiare. Il ragazzo è divertito da questa situazione, anche se un po’ sconcertato. Il problema è che la Dennis pensa bene di chiuderlo dentro a chiave. Praticamente Misery non deve morire. Mangiata la foglia, lo sventurato scappa, ma la Dennis lo ritrova ed è disposta a tutto pur di riavere il suo bambolotto. “La terza fossa” è un thriller con Geraldine Page e Ruth Gordon. Geraldine Page era bravissima, veramente, parliamo di quel livello di “bravissima” che hanno poche attrici, capaci di muovere il sopracciglio destro di 2 millimetri facendoti in quel momento capire tutta la trama. Questo non sarà il film più bello della Page, ma è un corso accelerato di recitazione. Poi, giustamente, le sue spalle sono altri due pezzi da novanta e cioè Ruth Gordon e Mildred Dunnock. Comunque, la Page qui è una pazza che fa fuori le sue governanti. Prima le tratta una vera merda, e poi quando si è stufata le uccide, scava una fossa nel giardino e ci pianta un albero giusto per tenere il conto. Così quando fa fuori la mansueta Dunnock, Ruth Gordon decide di fingersi governante per capire come mai la cara Mildred non è più tornata a casa. Scova tutti gli indizi, ma Geraldine Page ha le antenne che funzionano perfettamente, e non si fa abbindolare facilmente. Povera Ruth Gordon. “Fiore di cactus” di Gene Saks con Walter Matthau, Ingrid Bergman e Goldie Hawn è un tardivo esempio della commedia hollywoodiana classica, quelle che andavano negli anni ’30. Matthau è un dentista sciupafemmine, la Bergman è la sua infermiera e segretaria, da sempre segretamente innamorata del dottore. Ora Matthau spinge troppo sull’acceleratore e vuole scaricare la sua ultima fiamma, cioè la giovane Goldie Hawn, che ha gli occhioni da cerbiatta, e chi incarica di escogitare il modo più adatto? La Bergman. Lei quindi viene coinvolta suo malgrado nei giochi del principale, ma saprà volgere la cosa a suo vantaggio. Qui la Bergman è strepitosa, è rarissimo che abbia avuto ruoli comici, anzi a parte questo su due piedi non ne ricordo altri, ma il ballo del dentista mi fa morire dal ridere. Brava. “Stephane una moglie infedele” è ancora un thriller di Chabrol con Stephane Audran, Michel Bouquet e Maurice Ronet ed è nella mia top 5 dell’anno, anche se il titolo non mi piace. Comunque Bouquet e Audran sono una coppia felice, così crede lui. Un giorno lui accompagna la mamma all’auto e lei si è scordata gli occhiali, così torna in casa per riprenderli e c’è la Audran al telefono, visibilmente sorpresa. Che vuoi fare Jago, Bouquet ormai gli si è acceso l’interruttore del dubbio. Inizia quindi a controllare con più accuratezza la vita della moglie, solitamente lasciata a casa tutta la giornata. Lei racconta delle sue uscite con amiche, dello shopping, dei massaggi, del cinema, e Bouquet annuisce. Ma oramai non ci crede più. Contatta un investigatore per far pedinare la moglie, e… sorpresa!, ha l’amante veramente ed è Maurice Ronet. Bouquet quindi molto gentilmente un giorno bussa alla porta di Ronet e dice salve piacere di fare la sua conoscenza sono il marito di Stephane, bella la sua casa! Da non perdere assolutamente tutto il dialogo tra i due. Dopo tanti scambi di cortesia Bouquet porta a casa la giornata, diciamo così. Ora bisogna capire se riesce a tornare alla normalità, e cosa ne sarà della moglie. Gran film! “Non si uccidono così anche i cavalli?” è un film di Sydney Pollack ambientato negli anni ’30, con un cast nutritissimo, capitanato da Jane Fonda, poi Michael Sarrazin dagli occhi azzurri, il veterano Gig Young, l’altro veterano Buttons, l’emergente Bruce Dern e l’esordiente Bonnie Bedelia vent’anni prima di Die Hard. Questo film ricordo di averlo visto in tv da bimbo, secoli fa, ma avevo rimosso tutto. Così quando l’ho rivisto mi dico “uh la maratona di ballo! Dove l’ho già vista?”, “uh guarda ora non ballano li fanno correre, ma io questa scena l’ho vista!”, “uh la coppia con lei incinta che fa di tutto per vincere… me lo ricordo!”, e sinapsi dopo sinapsi mi son ricordato che l’avevo già visto. Solo che quando ero piccolo ricordavo di essere coinvolto dalla trama, ma non mi ricordavo assolutamentissimamente che fine faceva Jane Fonda. Così sono stato sorpreso e mi è piaciuto due volte: uno perché è un bellissimo film e due perché mi ha fatto venire in mente le buste di latte a forma di piramide sul ripiano della cucina e il carrarmato Perugina. “Kes” di Ken Loach è un film in cui c’è un ragazzino che vive con la madre che lo trascura e il fratello maggiore, un buzzurro che lo maltratta. A scuola è bullizzato, e ha il peggior repertorio di insegnanti mai visto, eccetto forse 1 che lo prende in simpatia, e meno male sennò era fantascienza. Il ragazzino si chiama Casper e come unico momento di serenità ha quello in cui addestra un falco che ha trovato in compagna. È bravo e paziente e per qualche attimo vive la sua età in modo spensierato. Purtroppo non è che siano tanti quei momenti: deve andare a lavorare, fare le commissioni per il fratello, subire tutte le immancabili punizioni a scuola e infine può tornare a casa. Un giorno rifiuta di giocare ai cavalli per conto del fratello, il quale neanche a dirlo avrebbe vinto una buona sommetta, e furibondo decide di riempire di botte Casper. Il bimbo scappa, ma il fratello ha un altro modo per vendicarsi. Per fortuna questo film non dura tanto perché c’è un limite al numero di soprusi a cui uno può assistere, anche se in fiction, ma il problema è che nel momento in cui finisce il film ti accorgi che vorresti continuasse per avere soddisfazione, ma è del tutto inutile, così ci rimani da schifo. “Bob & Carol & Ted & Alice” è un film di Paul Mazursky con Natalie Wood, Robert Culp, Dyan Cannon ed Elliot Gould. Culp e Natalie Wood sono sposini in cerca di nuove esperienze, e partecipano a una specie di terapia di gruppo in cui ciascuno deve esternare i propri sentimenti e poi tutti si vogliono bene e si abbracciano. Ne escono motivati a dirsi ogni cosa e a non giudicare il compagno. Bob Culp pensa bene di avere un’avventura amorosa e come se niente fosse lo dice alla moglie, la quale non batte ciglio. I due amicissimi Ted & Alice stanno vivendo anche loro un momento di transizione ma sono una coppia affiatata, solo che sembrano meno aperti a certe esperienze. Quando la Wood dice agli amici che il marito ha avuto un’avventura, la Cannon va giù di testa mentre Gould se ne torna a casa tutto eccitato. Imperdibile la scena in cui Gould vuole fare sesso mentre la Cannon non ha voglia, credo sia la scena che è valsa a entrambi la nomination all’oscar. Insomma le cose sembrano essersi normalizzate, ma un giorno Culp torna a casa e scopre la Wood ha pensato bene di avere lei la sua avventura. Una cosa tira l’altra, e i 4 amici finiranno nello stesso letto, ma non è una buona idea. Mai vista la Wood più bella che qui, Culp dal canto suo per una volta si è fatto crescere i capelli lunghi, mentre la Cannon è quella che mi è piaciuta di più. “Un uomo da marciapiede” è la storia di un ragazzo texano bello e ingenuo, Jon Voight, che lascia il suo lavoro di lavapiatti e va a New York in cerca di fortuna. Ha sbagliato città, epoca, e ha sbagliato sogni. Se fosse in reddit sarebbe in iamverybadass. Invece, flashback dopo flashback, scopriamo che ha vissuto con la nonna, che lo piazzava a letto tra sé e i suoi amanti, scopriamo che lui e la ragazza sono stati vittima di uno stupro, scopriamo che ha subito traumi di ogni genere. I suoi stivali, le sue camicie e il suo cappello sono freschi e puliti, la prima cosa che vediamo di lui è che si fa la doccia, pensa che a New York le donne gli sbavino dietro, in fondo lui è cresciuto con la nonna che cambiava un uomo a settimana, cosa ne può sapere, ma invece finisce che nel giro di pochi giorni le sue speranze sono distrutte. La gente non lo considera proprio, vanno a una velocità diversa. È un alieno. È stato tremendo assistere a quelle scene, questo film ti sbatte in faccia la distruzione delle speranze, l’incapacità di guardare in faccia la realtà in un modo violentissimo. Voight finisce a vivere in una stamberga squallida e fetente con l’unico amico che si è trovato, Dustin Hoffman che zoppica e tossisce malamente, Dio mio, mentre faceva quella tosse io gli volevo prestare le mie mascherine, il Covid ci ha rovinati. New York si abbatte su questi due come un morbo: la metro è inquietante, i vicoli hanno i vetri per terra, nessuno è ciò che sembra e come dice Sylvia Miles "la Statua della Libertà si è fatta una pisciata a Central Park". I due poi vanno a una festa in una casa che ha le scale ripide come ne “La folla” di Vidor, quando muore il figlio ai protagonisti. Quando Schlesinger ha inquadrato quelle scale mi è venuta la pelle d’oca, e ho capito tutto. Questo film (e Easy Rider pure) è un primitivo esempio anche di film in cui la colonna sonora non è scritta appositamente ma è fatta da canzoni già esistenti e questo lo rende modernissimo. Mi ha spalancato la porta degli anni ’70, non vedo l’ora.

Before entering politics, he was a businessman and television personality. Born and raised in Queens, New York City, Trump attended Fordham University for two years and received a bachelor's degree in economics from the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania. He became the president of his father Fred Trump's real estate business in 1971, which he renamed The Trump Organization; he expanded the company's operations to building and renovating skyscrapers, hotels, casinos, and golf courses. Trump later started various side ventures, mostly by licensing his name. Trump and his businesses have been involved in more than 4,000 state and federal legal actions, including six bankruptcies. He owned the Miss Universe brand of beauty pageants from 1996 to 2015, and produced and hosted the reality television series The Apprentice from 2004 to 2015. Trump's political positions have been described as populist, protectionist, isolationist and nationalist. He entered the 2016 presidential race as a Republican and was elected in an upset victory over Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton while losing the popular vote. He became the first U.S. president without prior military or government service. His election and policies have sparked numerous protests. Trump made many false and misleading statements during his campaigns and presidency, to a degree unprecedented in American politics. Many of his comments and actions have been characterized as racially charged or racist. During his presidency, Trump ordered a travel ban on citizens from several Muslim-majority countries, citing security concerns; after legal challenges, the Supreme Court upheld the policy's third revision. He enacted a tax-cut package for individuals and businesses, rescinding the individual health insurance mandate penalty of the Affordable Care Act (ACA). He appointed Neil Gorsuch, Brett Kavanaugh and Amy Coney Barrett to the Supreme Court. During the COVID-19 pandemic, he downplayed the threat, ignored or contradicted many recommendations from health officials, and promoted false information about unproven treatments and the availability of testing. In foreign policy, Trump pursued an America First agenda: he renegotiated the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) as the United States–Mexico–Canada Agreement (USMCA) and withdrew the U.S. from the Trans-Pacific Partnership trade negotiations, the Paris Agreement on climate change and the Iran nuclear deal. He imposed import tariffs which triggered a trade war with China, moved the U.S. embassy in Israel to Jerusalem and withdrew U.S. troops from northern Syria. He met three times with North Korean leader Kim Jong-un, but negotiations on denuclearization eventually broke down. A special counsel investigation led by Robert Mueller found that Trump and his campaign benefited from Russian interference in the 2016 presidential election, but did not find sufficient evidence to press charges of criminal conspiracy or coordination with Russia. Mueller also investigated Trump for obstruction of justice and his report neither indicted nor exonerated Trump on that offense. Trump later pardoned five people who were convicted as a result of the Russia investigation. After Trump solicited Ukraine to investigate his political rival Joe Biden, the House of Representatives impeached him in December 2019 for abuse of power and obstruction of Congress. The Senate, after refusing to hear witness testimony, acquitted him of both charges in February 2020. Trump lost the 2020 presidential election to Biden, but refused to concede defeat. He attempted to overturn the results by making false claims of electoral fraud, pressuring government officials, mounting dozens of unsuccessful legal challenges and obstructing the presidential transition. Hours before Congress was to tally the electoral votes on January 6, 2021, Trump rallied his supporters. After he exhorted them to march to the Capitol, they then stormed it, causing five deaths and forcing Congress to evacuate. Seven days later, the House of Representatives impeached him again, for "incitement of insurrection", making him the only federal officeholder in American history to be impeached twice. -ngl I didn’t read all of that but seem like u got em faxxx and we’re going to end it on that, there are now 131, hold ur horses

Hello again, and good morning! This listing is for items that did not sell during the January 17 Auction, so you can buy anything you want right here and right now - no buyer's premiums, no additional fees. *FREE shipping for any order over $100. *All items priced at $1 are now .75 each Each lot was individually imaged (front and back) for the auction - so the easiest way for you to see exactly what you're buying is to visit the auction link (the auction is over, so I'm not advertising anything different or advertising an upcoming auction) - so here that is: https://www.invaluable.com/catalog/2qx7j50tq0?size=50&page=1&categories=&sort= Here is the required "prove you still have the stuff" photo with the username card and today's date: PHOTO Payment: PayPal only. I do not have Venmo/Zello/Bitcoin or any other form of digital payment at this time. No notes if using PPFF, please. (Thank you.) If you choose to use PPFF, please make sure to send me your shipping address here as it won't automatically load with your payment. Shipping: I will charge you what it costs me for the USPS label rounded up to the nearest dollar. For First Class that is usually $4, for USPS Priority Mail Flat Rate Small Box it will be $9. I will get you a tracking number right after payment is received and will get your package scanned into the USPS system within 24 hours of receipt of payment. I will offer "Risky Shipping" (via stamped greeting card)at my discretionfor $1 - for single, small coins ONLY.NOTE: These prices are for Continental US shipping only - if you live outside the continental US, shipping will be more expensive. I am still happy to do it under the same rules as above, but just keep in mind it's going to cost more. What do YOU need to do to buy coins from this group: send me a list of which lots you want (for example, I want to buy lots # 51, 52, 53, 54, 55) and I will send you a total. There are too many coins here (plus there are duplicates) so I cannot look up the coins you want by description - just give me lot numbers and it will be much simpler. I'd like to make a simple and polite request - if I have sent you my PayPal information (meaning we've agreed to a deal) please finish it up as soon as you can so I can check you off the list and move on to the next person. This helps make sure you get all the coins we discussed and no one else is in limbo. I will do my absolute best to update the ad as soon as lots sell.
