 🏹She had me at “Sunrise”.☀️🌬️🌹🍃✨📚💜

“Collins has drawn upon Greek mythology and the Roman gladiator games for her earlier “Hunger Games” books. But for the upcoming novel, she cites the Scottish Enlightenment philosopher David Hume.

“With ‘Sunrise on the Reaping,’ I was inspired by David Hume’s idea of implicit submission and, in his words, ‘the easiness with which the many are governed by the few,’” Collins said in a statement. “The story also lent itself to a deeper dive into the use of propaganda and the power of those who control the narrative. The question ‘Real or not real?’ seems more pressing to me every day.” https://image.nostr.build/d65a0fd022238546d2d26f8900037302d472d6102c9c939fd8b56a917cf2c3be.jpg

 Rachel Zegler was nothing short of amazing in Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes. I was caught off guard by the singing. It’s the last the one would expect in Hunger Games but I loved it.☀️🌬️🌹🍃✨🎶❤️

 Viola Davis was so super evil in this movie. Like, I didn’t even bother to get upset about it because she made it convincingly clear to everyone that she was just born completely void of any moral compass or empathy. She made a great villain or should I say created a created villain.

 Tom Blythe was brilliant as young President Snow. President Snow was one of the more disturbing villains to me. But he was created not born and honestly he was forced into becoming a monster just to survive. He was sweet & kind & caring and it was so disheartening to see how it all evaporated away. After he acquired power he could have changed everything but it never works out that way.☀️🌬️🌨️❄️✨📚🩵

 Donald Sutherland will be greatly missed.🕊️🤍

Hunger Games: Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes was so difficult to watch. I saw this at the theater and within the first minute I had to “unrecline” my chair and sit on the edge of my seat for the entire film. It was horrific. Plus there a was little girl with Down syndrome as a tribute too. I couldn’t talk about it but the movie was good though.☀️🌬️🌨️❄️✨📚🩵

Fun Fact: Donald Sutherland narrated Ernest Hemingway’s The Old Man and The Sea.🌊
