His mirror, he concludes, is the most perfect picture of them all – adding a fervent wish that these objects could be made to reflect the moral character of their viewers. When sticking to his ostensible subject, de Maistre enumerates the sights along his path, which mostly comprise his furniture. His pink and white bed (a combination of colours he recommends for lifting the spirits) and his armchair feature prominently, as do the prints on his walls. Since we all now fall into these categories, this sounds promising – but does an 18th-century reactionary have much to offer in the way of a coronavirus guidebook? He intended it for ‘the countless unhappy people to whom I am here offering a sure and certain resource against boredom’, as well as for the ‘thousands of people who, before I came along, had never dared to travel, and others who hadn’t been able to’.

During this confinement he wrote his book A Journey Around My Room. In 1794, a French aristocrat named Xavier de Maistre, who was then living in Turin to escape the revolution (he was the younger brother of arch-conservative Joseph de Maistre), got into a duel and was put under house arrest by the local authorities. The Mary Sue has a strict comment policy that forbids, but is not limited to, personal insults toward anyone, hate speech, and trolling.We’re not the first people to be stuck inside, but can we learn anything from the spatial strategies of previous shut-ins?

So … at least we know that the movies that The Daily Wire is making are exactly the kind of movies we expected: Filled with people who faced consequences for their actions and were “canceled” and are just mediocre ideas for screenplays at best.

All of this just checks out.Īccording to Pajiba, Shut In will be available for free on YouTube for one night, before it is available only to subscribers of The Daily Wire. Like … of course Republicans want to watch a woman fight for her family using the power of Christ to guide her or a family of pioneers fighting outlaws for their land. Honestly, none of this is surprising given who is making these movies.

The other movie we know that Daily Wire is working on is called Terror on the Prairie, starring Carano, about a family on a farm fighting for their land from outlaws. Rainey Qualley, what are you doing? Daily Wire’s movie slate

Pair that with the movie being produced by Cinestate’s own Dallas Sonnier and this movie is just a Republican’s dream and everyone else’s worse nightmare. It is that all these “canceled” people have done something offensive or harmful that got them ousted, but telling them that is like telling a child they can’t play with their favorite toy.įor Shut In, the inclusion of Vincent Gallo is problematic all on its own, given that he was famous for the controversy around a movie that featured Chloë Sevigny performing non-simulated oral sex on him, and then he went on to become a homophobic, sexist troll of a man publishing an “open letter” talking about his past and his problematic views. He started this as a way to hire those that Hollywood has “cast out” for their “political views.” In reality, it isn’t that they’re Republicans. In all seriousness, it clearly started because Shapiro saw an opportunity for himself with the actors that Hollywood had “ousted.” Most recently, Shapiro and former star of The Mandalorian Gina Carano teamed up after the actress mocked the idea of specifying pronouns in your Twitter bio, spread conspiracy theories, and compared being a Republican to being Jewish in the Holocaust-just to set the scene for the kind of people that Shapiro wants to work with. How dare we tell a white man that his movie ideas are bad!

The whole reason behind Ben Shapiro’s foray into movies is because of “cancel culture”-that and, I suppose, the knowledge that Shapiro is a failed screenwriter, which explains why he went full right-wing conspiracy theorist and is angry at the world. So, as I said, your run-of-the-mill indie horror movie-this time, with Jesus.
