Rosemary A.D. (After Dad)
If you’ve ever been to a film festival, the chances are that, somewhere in a corner of the programme or on a dedicated screen, you’ve come across a short film strand. If you’ve talked to people watching it, you’ll have found that a lot of them make short films themselves. Obviously you won’t catch the next big hit at a strand like this, and often you’ll be able to sit there for an hour and not see a single face you recognise on the screen, but – hit and miss though these things are – you might just see something that takes your breath away. Little films like Ethan Barrett’s Rosemary Ad (After Dad) can take your breath away.

When it comes to “authorization,” Hulu’s Mike Tyson limited series Mike was damned if it did, damned if it didn’t, and probably shouldn’t have bothered at all.
Mike Tyson is pissed off that Mike, created by Steven Rogers and showrun by Karin Gist, was created without his “authorization,” loading up on accusations of racism against the Disney-owned streamer. The biggest problem with Mike, naturally enough, is that it’s far too generous to its unauthorized subject and, realistically, it’s hard to imagine anybody making a more sympathetic story about the former heavyweight champion and convicted rapist.
Mike isn’t some total puff piece, but it’s way more invested in trying to understand Mike Tyson and the things he has either admitted to doing or been convicted of doing than in actually depicting those things and letting the audience draw their own conclusions.
