This is a good question because the splintering of the monoculture that ramps up during this decade makes it so hard to answer. Because is there an act you could make a big, not a niche, hit out of with a sanded down print the legend biopic?

I get what people are going for with the "Draft Barron" stuff but I think it would make the point better if it was someone Trump knows personally

God's Own Country (2017). Excellent chamber piece where an closeted farm boy is sinking into alcoholism when he goes to pick up the help for the lambing season. What is illicit here isn't the sex, but the tenderness of it, and intimacy as a possible ward against life just being an endurance test.

War crimes but also having to do 15 bucks on ko-fi level mutual aid level things like asking for TV reporters to give stranded Americans lifts out of combat zones because you are so embarrassingly bad at everything.

Once again, America never factors into their war plans the part when the other side fights back.

I'd be interested in reading Tony Kushner script treatment of this. And then that's absolutely as far as it should go.

A movie I'd be curious to see, but a movie that no one, under any circumstances, should ever, ever make, is an Indiana Jones film set sometime after 1948, where the Israeli government asks to have the Ark of the Covenant repatriated.
