Christian Bales stars in this movie as CPT Blocker. Blocker is a veteran of the Indian Wars, and is tasked to escort Chief Yellow Hawk, played by Wes Studi. Blocker has reasons to dislike Yellow Hawk, but it's mutual, as they both killed each other friends/kin during the wars. Blocker only takes the job because he is about to retire, and he'll lose his pension. There are various other characters that enter and exit the wagon party. Ben Foster is introduced around half-way through the film, when Blocker is also tasked with taking SGT Wills to be hung at another fort. Wills serves as a foil to Blocker. Overall, a great movie, and a great cast.

Slightly over dramatised
The original story behind Srinivasa Ramanujan is remarkable enough without resorting to such theatrics. These films, as much as they are historically important especially for those with a similar background, tend to be slightly over the top. Ramanujan is one of the most significant mathematicians of our time, even more extraordinary is that he achieved success as a fellow at Cambridge despite being an Indian during wartime. Dev Patel hasn't quite reached his peak acting phase in this film, not like he did in Lion. He seemed to be a replica of his role in Slumdog Millionaire, a weepy, mopey kind of character. It's a vital film, but they could have done it better.

If the people speaking in this documentary were to be believed, The Shining is actually about the Holocaust, the American-Indian genocide, sexual liberation, sexual abuse, the destruction of society, the number 42, the ancient Greek legend of the Minotaur, all wrapped up in a confession about how Stanley Kubrick helped fake the moon landing. Also, you should watch it in reverse whilst simultaneously watching it normally, preferably with both projected over one another...

I'm not sure just how much I buy into any of that, but there's certainly some wild shit being thrown around in this documentary. Worth a watch, complimented with alcohol, or maybe even some of the Devil's Lettuce.
