Rock On! This Week's Sound Bites...12/5/24

"How Much Is Enough?" People seem to be taking to it," laughed Iain Matthews as he openly talked about his new release, his musical wanderlust, writer's block and more.   You finish a record and you're so saturated with it; you know if it's good but you just don't know how people are going to relate to it; you only know what you've created as an artist, you don't know whether you've made something that will draw people in but now that Wendy (Brynford-Jones) is doing her thing with all of the press and sending the record out to people, I'm getting these amazing responses back. So, I'm kind of thinking; maybe it's good (laughs)."

New Release Review - "On Becoming A Guinea Fowl"

by Eric Hillis, TheMovieWaffler.com
published 2024-12-04

As a children's show within writer/director Rungano Nyoni's second feature informs us, the guinea fowl is a bird known for its ability to ward off predators by gathering in groups and using its squawk to alert other birds to approaching threats. The film's protagonist, Shula (Susan Chardy), a middle class Zambian woman, can't get the childhood memory of that show out of her head. When we meet her first she's driving home from a costume party, decked out in a homemade guinea fowl costume. As Nyoni's film unspools, Shula's reasons for admiring the selflessness of the guinea fowl will become painfully clear. By a strange coincidence it's the second movie to arrive in recent weeks, following Andrea Arnold's Bird, in which a bird is employed as a metaphor for a protector against abuse.
