The Truffle Hunters

I thought this was a movie. 

It started off super slow and it must jjave been a good twenty minutes into the film when I realised it was a documentary but done in a very unintrusive manner with long scenes where not too much happens.

It's about four truffle hunters in the North West, Piedmont region of Italy. It's just a handful of old men who still hunt for truffles. They know each other as their paths cross from time to time. One of them, Angelo refuses to hunt any more as it's too commercial, cut throat and dangerous. Competing truffle hunters leave poisoned bait to kill the truffle hunters dogs. Angelo is a poetic figure with a strong sense of principle due to his disillusionment with the greed and corruption that have infiltrated the trade. He is shown rejecting offers from dealers who try to coax him back into the field, emphasizing his resolve to leave that life behind. His decision is rooted in a desire to preserve the purity of the tradition against the encroaching commercialization and unethical practices

The other three guys are Carlo - An elderly truffle hunter in his 80s, who goes out at night with his dog to avoid detection. He is portrayed as somewhat reckless, ignoring his wife Maria Teresa's concerns about his safety due to his age and the risks of nighttime hunting. Aurelio - A 90-year-old truffle hunter who is deeply attached to his dog, Birba. He is a bachelor with no children and expresses a hope that someone will care for Birba after he’s gone, reflecting his solitary yet dedicated life in the truffle forests. Sergio - Another truffle hunter and the youngest of them in his mid sixties, who hunts with his dogs, Biri and Fiona. He is shown as methodical and protective of his tradecraft secrets and likes to play the drums on his patio when he's not working.

It's a bucolic documentary about a way of life that is, if not quite dying out due to the extraordinary prices the truffles can command, is lived by an aging workforce who have no incentive to give away their knowledge.

White truffles, like those in Piedmont, are rarer and harder to quantify than the black truffles — estimates suggest 10-20 tons annually, but much goes unreported due to cash transactions and tax evasion. At prices ranging from $1,000 to $3,000 per pound for white truffles (and up to $6,000 for exceptional specimens), Piedmont’s white truffle trade alone could be worth $20-60 million yearly, conservatively.

There was something very charming about this film and it reminded me of the Italians we would meet driving from Germany to Malta as a child. Authentic, deeply connected toi the land and proud of their heritage. The old couple Carlo and his wife Maria Theresa had a small wine production and garden vegetable harvests with canning of tomatoes and so forth.

Their lives are guided by the seasons and customs and the growing or fermenting calendar. We don't have that any more. I sort of remember it, but it was evaporating, even back then as a child. 

The Truffle Hunters reminded me of it once again.

Melvyn Bragg Interviews Gore Vidal - Southbank Show - 2008

It's a wonderful conversation although for me, there are two exceptional moments in this 2008 Southbank production. Baron Bragg says he saw the US President was in Africa on TV that morning but Gore Vidal interrupts his story.

'How can they tell?'

Lord Melvyn Bragg tries not to laugh louder and it's worth paying attention.

I'll come back to the second moment a little later.

As a little Torquemada?

Took ages to find out the word I couldn't understand. I find listening very difficult in any language and generally respond to body language more than words. That's why podcasts are the best way of learning for me. Nothing to distract my eyes. In any case Gore Vidal is referring to Torquemada. A name I've never heard before.

What's striking is the comparison with Bobby Kennedy and saying it on camera. This is why Gore Vidal was a Greek among Romans. He said what he thought even if it took its toll, as he did with the Salzburgers who own the New York Times, now even worse and inarguably a propaganda rag. GV was an insider and knew the Kennedys so it's an exceptional piece of intel as we're now presented with RFK Jr who has done an excellent job on the Covid scamdemic only to declare his unfailing support for Zionism despite Ben Gurion's role as the highest authority (he reported to the next level up) for initiating JFK's and by extension RFK's assassination. To understand all that do a search on JFK + PERMINDEX then look at the correspondence between JFK and Ben Gurion on Dimona. JFK was adamant that Israel would have no nukes and that decision cost him his life.

Don't get me wrong. JFK upset everyone you could imagine (CIA, DoD and the FED etc) but the one thing nobody discusses is that he was bloodline and he chose to make the speech that went too far at the Waldorf Astoria which is Astor bloodline. They had to take him. He was doing everything he could to expose them. 

Another gem that I picked up from Gore is that his blind Senator grandfather was 33 Degree Mason and that it's common in bloodline families for one child to be clued up and another to have no idea. They are 5th Dan black belts in secrecy and most people haven't a clue.

I'm going to use this space to share a little more of what this video confirmed for me but only those who bother to check back on this post will know. I have no intention of embarrassing anyone, but the above video confirms my hypothesis and that's a confirmation that is mostly for my indulgence. I hope the future looks upon In Our Time as a very classy effort at asking difficult questions to answer about their lies. 

The credit goes to the man in the arena.

Giorgi Meloni - Italy's New Leader - Based & Red Pilled

It's not a perfect as she's pro NATO (NWO Standing Army) but her grasp of the enemy that the human race is facing is BASED.

Contrast her with the desiccated, incompetent and unelected President of the EU, Ursula Von Der Leyen who plagiarized her PhD Thesis and is threatening Italy as democracy didn't go her way.

It's the same deal in Gaza, when the election didn't go Israel's way, the entire world turned their back on their treasured ideals of democracy. It seems there's a type of person who only believe in something if it doesn't mean standing up for it, as it were.

It's comforting that the misnamed "far right", even for the most milquetoast and anodyne conservatism sends shivers up the brainwashed masses.

Nothing comes unannounced...

Update: Troubling associations

So there's that right?

The Godfather - Parts I, II and III

We make art not money is an allegory for the Godfather trilogy.

The music score is unparalleled in mobster mafia movies, though ersatz mob leaders are somewhat obvious in this epic drama. 

They aren't the real mafia, they are the Hollyweird ones.

They are there for your amusement, so to speak.

I discovered the mafia was run by much more low profile Zionists when researching the role of Israel and the Bronfman family in the murder of JFK.

That cast is conveniently covered up by the most powerful magician's spell on the planet. It's called Hollywood movies, and is the same reason the existential threat is always swinging from terrorists to zombie pandemics with no mention of who bombed the United States and the United Kingdom with no punitive response taken after WWII.

This movie is largely populated by Italian American actors who went on to have solid lifelong careers, such as Pacino, Andy Garcia and De Niro, but it's the presence of James Caan who stood out like a sore thumb, and not a very persuasive one at that.

There's a kind of subtle story-telling 'thruther' aspect in this trilogy if you're paying attention, but if you're not, it's still a great Cosa Nostra trilogy.

I haven't completed part III yet so I may update this when it is finished.

Update: 

How magnificent is Sofia Coppola, in  Godfather III? 

Very, is the answer.

There's a kind of circularity, in so much as in one scene, she takes the camera, while being directed by her father, Francis Ford Coppola, only to end up having an extraordinary female director's success in her later career.

Part III lacks the texture and richness of Part 1 and 2, but what it lacks in slow, moody and baroque-lit scenes, is compensated by more excellent Sicilian and Vatican film locations. For some reason, the critics panned her performance, but this is clearly a case of ignorance or envy. Mary Corleone, played by Sofia is spelling binding.

I'd probably have to watch this triptych again to scrape away at some of the more resonant topics visited in this excellent set of movies.

Update: Happy Birthday Sofia. 

What a coincidence or should I say synchronicity?

The Irishman - 2019

About ten minutes into the movie I realised it was not going to satisfy me, but as I wasn't alone I thought I'd let it run and see if I could make it interesting. At first I concentrated on the sets, cars and costumes, but about 2/3 into the movie I could see it was an historically interesting movie given the mobs' involvement in JFK, Nixon and general affairs of the USA from the early forties through till the early 80's when mobster and Union chief Jimmy Hoffa went missing (murdered by the Irishman)

The film is populated with all the old stars of previous mobster movies, including Pacino, Keitel, Pesci and the degenerate scum Robert de Niro who wont be remembered fondly by the end of Trump's presidency. 

You can take that to the bank.

It does coalesce into and interesting narrative towards the end but in my view, this is the swan song to Italian mob movies as the informed researcher will already understand that Hollywood is largely responsible for portraying the mafia as Italian when the real handlers were the likes of Meyer Lansky, Bugsy Siegel, The Bronfmans, Mossad, Sayanim and associated Israeli Terrorist Gangs and Politicians.

A Bigger Splash

If it wasn't for Ralph Fiennes extraordinary performance this movie would have fallen flat on it's face. It's still worth watching.

Gomorrah

Gomorrah is the best film I've watched in ages. 

I've got Gigabytes of movies that are supposed to be good, but when I get round to watching them, most don't make the cut and end up on my shit movies blog.

 I don't write these posts to review films, as others can do that much better but I do type up something to recommend them to like minded people and hopefully add some context, because most of the time I'm criticizing brainless Hollywood movies on Twitter.

However if you'd like a sound bite I'd describe Gomorrah as an Italian "The Wire". I'm so grateful quality art and story telling is still around in the film category. 

So little else really grabs me these days in the written form.

Beppe Grillo, Gianroberto Casaleggio & Italy's Five Star Movement

Wow. I've been so jaded with politics, that I completely took my eye off the ball and missed the Italian elections. Earlier today I had a conversation with someone I respect politically and learned that the new superstar party in Italy might not be so cool with immigration issues which is the hot potato issue that the power elite want to divide Western Democracy with.

Anyway  I've done some research and Beppe Grillo's Five Start Movement is masterminded by Gianroberto Casaleggio and they've got a very interesting democracy 2.0 video posted above that amazingly even name checks the Bilderberg Group that the corporate whore media can barely mention without spluttering. Couple that with the Huffington Post and the Guardian shitting their pants over people voting in or out of the Euro by fast electronic democracy and I'm very attracted to the Five Star Movement. Huffpo and Guardian readers are the ultimate anus scratching finger sniffers.

But hold on a second. 

There's a Leni Riefenstahl nod in the video above and I'm too jaded to believe in parties that appear out of nowhere, even though a crowd sourced movement is almost obvious really.

I believe in humans. Our collective ability to get rid of the parasites that are bleeding us dry. I don't believe in isms or ologies. I believe in doing the right at the right time and sometimes it's a new thing and sometimes it's an old thing. 

So I'm cautious but I'm watching these guys. They're interesting. Whatever you do watch the video. It could have been written by me without that jarring Leni Riefenstahl nod, who I like creatively but probably shouldn't be in a political video. 

I get nervous about symbolism like that. No more Swastikas. No more Stars of David. No more Stars and Stripes no more Union fucking Jack Offs. 

I'm sick of you.

It's a very exciting time to be alive. History is starting to take shape.

Put 'Em Up Captain (He's So Good Looking)

As the corporate for profit war media crank up the propaganda for the war against Iran I didn't bother checking out a luxury liner going down. However I assure you this audio clip from the BBC with actors doing voice over of the Coastguard ordering Captain Schettino back to his sinking ship to rescue drowning passengers is unmissable. 

It's pure Kali Yuga and I expect to see much more unveiling throughout this year of the cowardice and venality of those who seek and are awarded privilege and responsibility.

New Electrics - The Magic Of Mr Rossi & Death Of Thermodynamics

These are very exciting times we live in. Cold fusion energy is on the horizon and there are lots more innovators who are going to come out into the open after a century or so of technological suppression that began with Nikola Tesla.

The corporate for-profit-media are overwhelmingly unable to report this in an objective manner as free energy goes to the heart of the weakness of consumer capitalism which is that new electrics change everything and charge nothing. I say everything again because as I wrote last year (knowing this was coming up) there's no need for brands. 


This is self evident if you think this through from a logical progression perspective instead of the brief anomaly of history called brands that lasted less than the duration of wig wearing.

I love saying New Electrics because I know that's the word the energy cabal search utilities pick up and freak out over. 

So: New Electrics, New Electrics, New Electrics.

NB - Observers of Webbots will note that patent application obstruction will be the way the energy cabal tries to slow this down but it's too late. This is a juggernaut and the toothpaste is out the tube.
