The Professor

The Professor (2018)

A semi-fictional account, including most of the names of the players being changed, of the event that resulted in the creation of the term Stockholm Syndrome to describe people who feel empathy and sometimes more for their captor(s) is presented. In 1973, a lone armed man, thought to be American, storms the downtown Stockholm branch of Kreditbanken. Ultimately the authorities, led by Chief of Police Mattsson learn of his at-gunpoint demand: $1 million US, the release of convicted bank robber and murderer Gunnar Sorensson, and a Mustang Boss 302 like the one Steve McQueen drove in Bullitt (1968) as a getaway vehicle for the two of them. By the time Mattsson gets Sorensson to the bank - unknown to the gunman, who is thought to be well known robber Kaj Hansson, Sorenson having made a plea deal with Mattsson for his cooperation against the gunman - there are three hostages at the bank, all the others that were in the bank at the time let go. Arguably the most lucid of the three is bank clerk Bianca Lind, a wife and mother of two preschool aged children. Ultimately she is able to figure out that the gunman is not Hansson as Mattsson suspects, but rather Lars Nystrom, what she knowing of his past crimes chief being his humane treatment of people he held at gunpoint. Beyond what Sorensson decides to do with his ultimate goal not to go back to prison, what happens largely depends on Lind, who begins to trust Nystrom more than either Mattsson or Prime Minister Olof Palme whose actions and decisions she believes from what she can see are more of a potential physical detriment to her and her fellow two hostages than that of Nystrom.—Huggo

The King of Staten Island

The King of Staten Island (2020)

Set in 1789 before the French Revolution, the film begins with the king and the nobles ruling in excess while the people starve. When the ordinary man is on the brink or dies of starvation, the aristocrats view food as a way to kill time. Just the educated gourmets, they themselves, are able to enjoy the food --- as it should be enjoyed. Pierre Manceron (played by Grégory Gadebois) is the master cook of a French aristocrat, the Duke of Chamfort. One night, among a multitude of preordered dishes served, he serves one small creation of his own: baked truffles with sliced potatoes. Fired by his aristocratic master for not apologizing for the act, he is forced to retreat to his father's house, which now has been looted by starving citizens looking for food. His son Benjamin (Lorenzo Lefèbvre) and old friend Jacob (Christian Bouillette) join him. Pierre enters a depression and stops cooking. A woman named Louise (Isabelle Carré) arrives at their doorstep with a proposition. In his sadness, Pierre is not interested in hearing it, but offers her a bed to sleep. She is not interested in the bed until she has spoken to him about her proposal and thus spends the night outside in the rain. Manceron grudgingly takes her on and finds that she is a talented cook. Soon he has an opportunity to win back his position with Chamfort, but his son Benjamin argues that they should innovate with what they have and provide a restaurant service to passers-by irrespective of rank. This results in the welcome discomfiture of the aristocratic former master and the founding of a famous new tradition of hospitality for travelers.
