The Voices (2014)

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

This is a rewatch from years ago, and I still love this one. I forgot Anna Kendrick was in this one but she blows it out of the water.

First and foremost: I am a Jerry apologist. I would lay my life on the line for that man. Some of you may have arguments against this, seeing as the problematic and/or illegal things he did in this film. I don’t care, you’re literally wrong. That’s Jerry.

I am also a Ryan Reynolds fan, I think it is insane he was also voicing Mr. Whiskers and Bosco along with Jerry.

I am on the fence as to whether this is positive representation for schizophrenia and as someone that does not have it, I don’t think I have the right to judge that. However, as a person who haas experienced a spiral in a similar fashion to Jerry, I think that was illustrated well. I could not help but feel the peril that Jerry felt.

HIGHLY RECOMMEND watching through the end credits.

You should watch this:

for the oh-so-perfect use of sonic body horror

if you enjoy the devil and angel on the protagonist’s shoulders trope

Similar titles to this:

American Psycho (2000) (a mixture of dismembering and monologues, but a lot more capitalist critique)

Donnie Darko (2001) (mentally ill teen affected by an accident, plagued by visions)

Otis Redding Foundation Releases Musical Tribute to Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Available Today

In honor of Dr. Martin Luther King’s birthday, the Otis Redding Foundation is releasing a new song, “Show Love,” written and produced by students ages 12-18, who attended the Otis Music Camp at the height of the pandemic in 2020. The song is based on a sermon “Loving Your Enemies” which Dr. King delivered at Dexter Baptist Church in Montgomery, AL on November 17, 1957, and includes a live excerpt of the sermon. Dexter Baptist Church is a designated historic landmark and boasts significant African American history since its opening in 1887. Much of Montgomery’s early civil rights activity, most famously the 1956 Bus Boycott, was directed by Dr. King from his office in the lower level of the church.

“We are always proud of the students who participate in the music camps that the Otis Redding Foundation offers each year,” stated Karla Redding-Andrews, Vice-President, Executive Director. “This song was recorded during the 2020 pandemic in the virtual Otis Music Camp, OMC 2.0 using Soundtrap by Spotify Digital audio workstation. It represents the love and respect these young people have for Dr. King during the height of the “pandemic,” a word they had never heard before.”

The young people who wrote and performed “Show Love” are Sharina Cody, Daylen Clowers, Trevor Hudson, Ella Smith, Jayden Tolbert, and produced by Saxton Keitt, Isaac Gibson and Reese Soul.

“My husband believed in giving young people an opportunity to grow through music. Our camps inspire them to write, perform, produce, and play instruments,” stated Zelma Redding, Founder and President. “We are excited about the new Otis Redding Center for the Arts which broke ground in Macon in September 2022. We will be able to expand our programs and allow more young people to grow their musical talents.
