I guess I'll start at the top. The Power of One seems to be a film? Shot in 1992 and I'm recognizing actors, so I can only kneejerk assume that it might be propoganda - (I haven't trusted Hollywood for much of any accurate information). Mandela movie with Danny Glover? Danny Glover is a name I recognize, so maybe also Hollywood? Shaka Zulu - that sounds familiar. I see he was a warrior or leader of some sort from the early 1800s? Interesting! The Gods Must Be Crazy - more movies, but I've never heard of this director, Jamie Uys? Maybe I'll start here if you think it was something that taught you about South Africa? Neil Blomkamp - Hollywood? I recognise a couple titles. Die Antwoord was in Chappie too? Sinister pair there, I heard some disturbing things about their real lives as well. Their music is very.... Worldly. Not very interested in Musk in general Publis school could have taught us more relevant things, bnut we could have paid more attention also Nature documentaries are a big positive! That Ya Mama Fatboy Slim video is wiiiiilllllld 🤣 First and last time I'll watch that! Thank you for your initial impressions! From now on feel free to research S. Africa and post here at whim. I'm curious about the place, genuinely

Thank you for the summations. Maybe if I'm bringing a bird back to the nest I'll put one of these on for background. 😅
