Thanks for the recommendation--sounds wonderful! The good news: I'm excited about watching this. The creepy news: Amazon Prime sent me an email with a link!!! Surveillance capitalism abounds!!

YIKES! That is indeed beyond creepy. Totally bizarrrrrro world. Amazon Prime’s suggestibility-bot must be super busy if it’s picking up on your visit to my Substack post!

Back to the movie though: I am willing to offer translation services for the small number of cultural references that may not be obvious even though the VO is in English.

BTW the boy who plays the Superman is our son, Shashank. Glad that you loved the film. He is a fan of your writing. The last I saw he was going gaga over your stories in Stolen Hours.
