Ah the beautiful ballet - the choice of a 35 minute wait for Dublin's privatised bus solution to the city centre or devote my savings to a taxi from the airport.
@LukeByrne1 La Bodega Negra for unreal margs and atmosphere! Also - I mistook this for Aardman Animations and thought perhaps you were working on Chicken Run 2
To mention - the "big reveal" scene occurs at "The Admissions party" a secret underground elite event for students accepted into Ivys. Reeking of conspiracy language, this is where Max admits to his own masterminding and covertly influencing the entire school social hierarchy....
@Baddiel's Jews Don't Count was eye-opening and a necessary read for me, helping me to better identify both my own internalised anti Semitism as a Jewish woman & external anti Semitism as well
In terms of @Baddiel's work, the film characterises Max as a "fake woke feminist", drawing allusions between that classic anti Semitic trope of Jews masking, or hiding their Jewishness in plain sight to gain access to non-Jewish communities
