‘It Was An Enormous Amount Of Weight On My Shoulders’: Years After Billy Eichner’s Bros Underperformed At The Box Office, He Shared His Feelings On The Film’s Legacy

The movie titled “Bros” is one that somehow didn’t catch the attention of many viewers despite its release in 2022. During its debut weekend, it didn’t perform as expected, but Billy Eichner, who co-wrote and starred in the film, has expressed nothing but pride about it. In interviews during his press tour for the massive Disney hit, “Mufasa,” the former “Parks and Rec” cast member discussed this underrated gem and its potential impact on cinema’s future.

‘2073’ Review | A Sci-Fi Documentary’s Dystopian Prophecy

As a documentary filmmaker who has spent years chronicling the harsh realities of our world, I find myself deeply moved by Asif Kapadia’s latest work, titled “2073.” With a background in both documentary and fiction, Kapadia masterfully blends these genres to paint a hauntingly realistic portrait of a dystopian future that is eerily close to becoming our present.

The setting is a scorched Earth decimated by climate change, where the ruling class of one-percenters wields power through advanced surveillance technology and brutally suppresses any signs of dissent. This chilling vision is built upon current and past world events, making it all too plausible.

In my work, I’ve seen firsthand the devastating impact of climate change on communities worldwide, and I can only shake my head in agreement as Kapadia’s predictions unfold before me. The narrative is paper-thin, but it serves its purpose well, interweaving the struggles of a fictional protagonist with archival news footage and commentary from journalists, activists, and political figures.

Kapadia doesn’t shy away from using a sledgehammer approach to deliver his message, passionately advocating for liberal values while lambasting right-wing populism and libertarianism. I appreciate this unabashed stance, as it reflects my own beliefs and experiences.

However, I acknowledge that Kapadia’s heavy-handed doomsday prophesying may rub some the wrong way. But to those who dismiss his arguments, I ask them to take a long, hard look at the state of our world today and consider the consequences of inaction. The validity of Kapadia’s warnings cannot be denied, and it is up to us to heed them and work towards a better future for all.
