News: Culture
Best of: Sports movies
I don鈥檛 care that much about sport, but I听love听movies about sport: the comradery, the struggle, the eventual win against all odds. So, if you're听in need of a good hit of those things, here are the five sports movies that I consider essential viewing.
Review: Normal People - the series
Whether听you're an avid fan or an active resister of Normal People, the听acclaimed Sally Rooney novel,听it听doesn't really听matter. Ultimately,听the recent BBC Three and Hulu adaptation of the text transcends all sensibilities:听it's an intimate听portrayal of听that profoundly human desire to connect with others and to feel a sense of belonging.
The rise of the Instagram tabloid: how the platform is reviving the golden age of celebrity culture
With the rise of social media, journalism has听undoubtedly changed, as tabloid magazines have become all but obsolete for the modern generation. But something鈥檚 lacking, and a niche corner of Instagram seems to know just what that something is.
Discovering local bands
I have always loved live music, but听I didn鈥檛 really get into local music until my housemate, who is a musician, moved in to our share house. I started going along to his gigs and began to notice other great local bands that were performing at the same venues. I soon learnt that there is a vibrant local music scene in Adelaide that I never really knew about. Seeing more local, live music has without a doubt made my life better. I love finishing a day at uni or work and being able to dance with abandon to the energetic sounds of a local rock band.
