Donald Trump Movie ‘The Apprentice’ Shocks Cannes, Receives Nearly Eight-Minute Standing Ovation

"There is no nice metaphorical way to deal with the rising wave of fascism," director Ali Abbasi said when asked why he wanted to make the film about the former president's rise to power in 1980s America. "I think it's time to make movies relevant. It's time to make movies political again."

From the article and standing ovation I think it’s safe to say it isn’t flattering and is to serve as a warning.

I'd say the same thing based on the subject alone.

If it was any sort of movie that tries to portray Trump as a normal, sane adult of average intelligence, it would feel a lot like Abe Lincoln Vampire Hunter.

I think it’s interesting that its about his rise in the 80’s but the director specifically mentions his concern about the rise of fascism in the present. So it’s clearly going to make a connection between then and now. If it was just about his political career it would probably be a low hanging fruit yawner and, well, too soon.

If anyone ever makes a film about current-day Trump that includes his recent courtroom appearances, the sound effects people will have a field day. And moviegoers will be thankful that Smell-O-Vision didn't catch on.

From that article:

"I think it's time to make movies relevant. It's time to make movies political again."

Goddamn right it is.

"Trump posted a video on Monday afternoon that features images of hypothetical newspaper articles celebrating a 2024 victory for him and referring to “the creation of a unified Reich” under the headline “What’s next for America?”

I'm speechless.

Trump’s threatening litigation, surprise surprise. He should have “I’m suing” carved on his mausoleum.

the streisand effect will make it really big so I hope he goes for it.
