DELAYING COUNTY COMMITTEE ELECTIONS IS A COWARDLY ASSAULT ON DEMOCRACY February 16, 2021, 7:21 pm | in DELAYING COUNTY COMMITTEE ELECTIONS IS A COWARDLY ASSAULT ON DEMOCRACY LD20 State Senate Candidate Jason Krychiw and State Assembly Candidates Aissa C. Heath and Ricky Castaneda have released the following statement: Tonight, the Union County Democratic Committee voted to delay the Committee elections that were to take place this year until 2023. This plan was decided and endorsed unanimously weeks ago by the municipal chairs and county chairperson in yet another example of a behind-closed-door power grab. They have used the COVID pandemic to delay the will of the people and undermine our most fundamental right to vote for who we want representing us. To use a health emergency as an excuse only further erodes the public trust in government. Last year, the Democratic State Committee recommended delaying Committee elections to better ass ....
William Shakespeare’s Francesca Noel and Cameron Engels. It’s helmed by a Black filmmaker. And it finds a way to propel a 500-year-old play into the present day. But, fam, R#J is just not a good movie. In fact, it’s pretty horrendous and right from the start. Williams immediately drops his audience inside an increasingly confusing vortex where his protagonists, two teenagers in an urban neighborhood, exist in today’s world but speak in iambic pentameter, the English poetry style made famous by Shakespeare. Cameron Engels and Francesca Noel in R#J To be doubly clear, they say things like “Where art thou” and “Ye,” and not in jest. This is just how they talk. Intellectual audiences might assume in the beginning that the two are simply boning up on their British literature or practicing for a recital. Nope, buckle up, this is the entire ride. ....
2021 Sundance Film Festival Review – R#J Starring Camaron Engels, Francesca Noel, David Zayas, Diego Tinoco, Siddiq Saunderson, and Russell Hornsby. SYNOPSIS: A modern-day adaptation of Shakespeare’s romantic tragedy “Romeo and Juliet.” A movie adaptation of The Bard’s most popular play for the Instagram set has the obvious potential to be completely insufferable, and yet, Carey Williams’ daring debut harnesses just enough beguiling skill and slipperiness to prove itself worthwhile. Perhaps every generation gets the Romeo and Juliet movie they deserve; Baz Luhrman’s 1996 take perfectly captured the edgy gloss of the MTV generation with its staccato editing and marrow-rich colours, while if nothing else, this new take for the social media generation captures modern youth in all of its openness, sensitivity, and yes, narcissism. ....
Using the same Screenlife technology that powered films like 2018’s innovative Searching, director Romeo and Juliet through phone screens and social media accounts in his debut feature R#J. That approach might sound obnoxious, but for the most part, it works surprisingly well. Just as Baz Luhrmann did in 1996 with his stylish Romeo + Juliet, Williams aims to keep the story fresh for the next generation, and despite using Instagram and FaceTime as the key methods of communication between his characters, he’s able to tap into the raw romance at the core of this star-crossed lovers’ tale. Before the movie started, Romeo Montague ( ....
