Can't emphasize enough how much I enjoy reading the @thecontinent - it's a Saturday morning highlight, even when the stories are dark, there's always hope in it. These days it feels like a minor act of resistance to seek out news from new places where people are doing their best to build up the bulwark of solid information against the power of manipulated narrative.

Flipboard@flipboard.social - What is the most inclusive film festival in the world? @thecontinent says it’s the Berlinale, which this year supported multiple African movies and auteurs. The Golden Bear — the festival’s grand prize — was won by Senegalese-French Mati Diop for her art reparations documentary, “Dahomey.” She is the first Black person to win that award.

In 2019 Gint Zilbalodis released his film “Away” which he animated and produced by himself. His new film “Flow” just won the Golden Globe for Best Animated Feature, though this time he did have a small team, and beating heavyweights “Inside Out 2” and “The Wild Robot”. #animation #movieshttps://www.cartoonbrew.com/awards/golden-globe-shocker-flow-wins-best-animated-feature-244760.html

Happy 32nd anniversary to the best film adaptation of a book to have ever happened in the entire history of cinema and literature. One of the sweetest and most heartwarming interpretations of 'A Christmas Carol'. The first Muppets film to come out after the passing of Jim Henson and puppeteer Richard Hunt, dedicated to both their memories. The movie that gave us one of Michael Caine's most somber and emotional performances. The only version of the story featuring a blue, furry Charles Dickens of undefined species narrating his own novella. A masterpiece.
