But not impossible: It’s hard to imagine a boring movie about Vikings. Hell, the 1958 movie had Kirk Douglas, Tony Curtis and Ernest Borgnine, and while no award winner it kept you watching. Unlike the 2022 “The Northman”. Sorry, it just sux. There were times I thought I’d been dropped into some esoteric Ingmar Bergman movie. It’s bad.
He’s white, it doesn’t count: A white man was brutally beaten by a black mob on Beale Street, according to a video posted to a Memphis-area social media page. “This is a shame,” said the narrator on a page purported run by Cleo Buress. “This is very embarrassing for Memphis.” She also condemned bystanders who crowded around to watch the attack but refused to render an assistance to the victim.
