"I always come back to this idea of chaotic femininity or chaotic femme. It’s a discourse I have with some of my nerdier friends, like a standard for representations of women that we gravitate to and are driven crazy by. What Assayas does in this film, with the layers of fiction and reality, and representation of representations of representations, is similar to Mulholland Dr.: he interrogates this idea of the actress and the very idea of a character, and leaves you with a queasy feeling about what it all adds up to. What I love about this, particularly as embodied in Juliette Binoche’s performance, is the idea of a woman who is resigned to a downfall and is just fascinated to see how it all plays out. What is this thing that leads women with stable socioeconomic circumstances and certain amounts of privilege (in this case, fame and fortune) to self-destruct? It’s an endlessly fascinating question to me, and I love the way this film explores it. I also immensely enjoy seeing American stars like Kristen Stewart and Chloë Grace Moretz in this complicated, dark, serpentine French film. Those are some of my favorite performances by each of the three women. I love films about actresses; they always hit me right where it hurts."

Chaotic, Silly Fun
I always take Dobble if I'm going round a friends house, or whip it out if people are coming over, as it's always chaotic fun when it's played.

There are five game modes in Dobble, and they all have the same basic premise: either get rid of all of your cards, or have the most cards at the end.

Every card will have a number of different symbols on them (like a clown or spider,) and every card has one symbol that can be found on the other players cards, and you have to find the match before the other players. This can lead to some hectic games, as everyone scrambles to find their matching symbol at the same time.

Games are over quickly, and the different game modes have enough variety in them, to stop them from being too samey. It could be The Well, where players are trying to get rid of their cards into the middle of a pile first, or Hot Potato, where you don't want to be the last player left with everyone elses cards.

All in all, Dobble is a great party game, but if you're looking for a gentle, calm game, this isn't for you ?.
