and the book that scandalized german society and then became an oscar nominated film in our series 100 job and must read them portraying. box we begin with a new movie from the most successful franchise of old time provided to us by the malvo universe of comic book heroes the last movie avengers endgame close the chapter with devastating effects and now a new era begins with spider-man fall from her. big old man next on live well no i don't have time to be doing your job. kidding i'm kidding let's keep up the work because i am going on vacation. he's going on vacation but scott. yeah so what's happening i mean the new era gets away

gets underway but off he goes on vacation yet wanting to be on a spiderman deserves vacation and you've seen the the avengers the last avengers movies i mean half the universe gets destroyed and gets rebuilt you know spiderman's a big part of that whole thing the guy must be exhausted so i. should choose to take some time out but this film spider-man far from home it's quite interesting the sort of scheme of the whole marvel universe because essentially what marvel's trying to do with this film it's both it takes place right after the events of. vendors and game so it continues that story but the same time it's trying to. put introduce us to the spider-man character better yet put him in the center of the story so we saw the spider-man characters played by tom holland in this in this version in a couple movies already he had another movie spider-man homecoming which sort introduce the character with this with this film but i was trying to do these 2 things are trying to sort of restart this new chapter in the marvel universe and put spider-man the scent of essentially doing what they did the very 1st movie what

2008 with iron man with robert downey jr and a tribe with tom holland in the robert downey jr character spider-man's the veyron man tom holland that are offered him a guy i know but it's cool far from home the british actor tom holland is actually much closer to home in this film because it's it's europe that's getting destroyed . london venice and prague are in for a beating in this latest film as our friendly neighborhood spider-man swings over and tries to save europe's most picturesque landmarks anticipation was high at the film's premiere in l.a. fans are nervous to see if this spider-man can reboot the marvel cinematic universe after the epic conclusion that was a dangerous anger star tom hall and promises still get their money's worth. a whole new spider-man something we've never seen. the for stakes high than they've ever been before a film that follows the mosque the peace it is a vengeance and game you know this film is the conclusion to face 3 and it is the

introduction of phase 4 and anyone disappoint. but if you're in the room go to europe or to. peter parker wants to take a break from being spiderman and on a school trip to europe to get back to being an awkward teenager maybe even get a little bit closer to a very special if somewhat snarky girl. you're really pretty and therefore i have value no no that's not what i meant at all i was just a messing with you. and. you're welcome pretty too but romance will have to wait there are big baddies to fight in the form of magic creatures called the elementals new onboard is jake gyllenhaal was the weird looking superhero mysterio you don't want to be part of this. along with saving the world spider-man also has to learn to grow up and take on the mantle of being a hero as well as a burden of shouldering marbles

a multi-billion dollar movie franchise. i read this franchise it's big of the ball business bigger than star wars but it's actually not beguiling that long how come it's a huge yeah i mean marvel's quite quite amazing just as a business proposition but i mean they've they've they've managed to create a very strict formula with you know superheroes action in every film that they make but within that formula they have a huge variety of genres i mean. you know the the galaxy the guardian the galaxy films or some space spoofs you know you have serious dramas or war because like captain america moves or war movies this is the spider-man movie this version is actually a teen romantic comedy as much as it is an action film and and the best scenes i think in this movie are the ones that you almost like a john hughes. movie i mean the flirtatious scenes with m.j. and peter parker is as and seems like teens just hanging out talking about t.v.

and so on i mean not going to get that a james bond movie i think that really broadly expands the market and the audience for these stress and these movies they get really good actors and directors don't you know that's that's also the amazing thing i mean you've had like you know robert downey jr cate blanchett the benedict cumberbatch all been marvel superhero stars and here in this film we've got jake gyllenhaal who's who's who's a phenomenal actor who's never done this kind of movies before he plays a kind of real figure this mysterio who wears a sort of fishbowl glowing fishbowl helmet you know on the page it would be utterly ridiculous but he's such a great actor a joho is that he gives a depth to this character and creates what would actually seem to be a joke into something that is almost a commentary on on faith news that's a bit of a commentary on donald trump i want to give any spoilers but there's a lot there i mean you can say what you will about the bible films they are formulaic but they're also very very stark and if you want to you can read a lot into a very funny very gentle save themselves seriously very much very much as always thanks very much now if you're

a film you will know this book series 100 german must read wrote the reader in 995 and stephen daldry directed the movie in 2008 was highly acclaimed in garnering 2 oscar nominations including one for best picture the story of the reader is a great example of how literature can be such a powerful maids of communication you think your ex is a creep imagine your 1st big love has a blot on our hands. lots of it. that's what happens in band had slinks novel the reader it's 1950 s. germany and 15 year old falls head over heels for an older woman a street car conductor named hannah hannah is fascinating and she's freaky she bathes gently and she also beats him. to to develop

a ritual when they meet to make love she insists that he read to her. years later as a law student the times of trial where hanna is the defendant he learns that she was a guard at a concentration camp and that she watched as hundreds of women and children burned to death the reader is about post-war germany trying to come to terms with its nazi past. when i tried to understand it i had the feeling i was failing to condemn it as it must be can down when i condemned it as it must be condoned there was no room for understanding. and was accused of ordering the victims be kept locked inside a burning building and of writing a report about the massacre she couldn't have written the report because she's illiterate but she's too ashamed to admit it and so she takes the fall. kate winslet won an oscar for capturing hannah's complexity in the film the reader

when the book came out in the 1990 s. bahn schlink took a wad of criticism for portraying and nazi criminal not as a monster but as a human being. it's a great story all this week we're looking at artists who deal with light and shade in all its full we begin with dutch. and go dine who met at college in the netherlands in 2007 they started studio drift where they use technology to represent nature he is fascinated by shots fiction and she i know you combine their talents in an intriguing way. studio address artworks combined design nature and technology with results that sharpen viewers perceptions and suggest feelings of freedom and weightlessness.

the 2 artists from amsterdam even make cement blocks levitate. studio drift is a lot of gore dying and ralph noto. came back from la scala and he had this idea he came back and he called on the plains of have an incredible idea we have to make a floating look of concrete and can you imagine it just floats. in the film drifters that goes floating blokes. with the back problems of all the scottish highlands are in a very contrast so with with your garden and they're searching for a system that they do for you because they don't all fits in their natural system so it's actually the other way around but in our lives we are human beings so so we

are the nature of the natural parts in the book environment so our life is exactly the opposite. studio drift questions the divide between nature and technology this sculpture reacts to visitors movements as if it were a living being. and the lights on this tree respond to visitors heartbeats and brainwaves i don't much like yours like little stars in the sky to beat. you to the very movie like i want to go dancing somewhere because it's also inspiring and it's also life for me you know. back in 2007 the artist duo gained worldwide a crane with the sculpture fragile future it's a delicate snapshot of nature with lamps made from a real dandy. lion's. head was dried in the studio then glued in place using tweezers before the artists added an early delight. in 2017 studio draft unveiled their work franchise freedom

a formation of 300 drones which the artist flying like a flock of birds into the night sky over miami beach. he wanted to be the 1st to bring out. a swarm of drones that would actually react on each other and have this boy i think movement a real word swarm actually has it's raising the question like what actual freedom is or are we living in a lose you know freedom. where do we want to live do you want to be choppered liebert free or do we want to adjust yourself to a social structure and not be so free. studio just says absolute freedom is an illusion but they don't seem to be letting that get in the way of their creativity you are asking the big questions about humanity and other nations shift to nature and technology.

especially like that swarm of drones and that relationship between nature and technology will become more important in the future right that's it for this edition of arts and culture thanks for watching and join isn't the same charge of our if you can from me and all the crew here in belin.
