I think you're right. It's a transitional scene between Arrowsmith as a young boy and then as a doctor. There's also the possibility that it's not Ronald Coleman in this scene.
I don't know Wife vs Secretary but thanks for the tip. I'd put The Rains Came in there.
Yeah, it's a bit of a plot hole. You'd have thought they'd have realised that the deer would be a threat to the crops literally from Day One.
😂😂😂😂🤣🤣
"more advanced society" 😂😂😂

Can you tell me where?
Lots of people seem to be talking about a ghost visible when she gets out of bed but I can't see that.
The first time we see her in her flat (the older flat with the neighbours) there's a shot where she picks out a score and in the background to the right there is what appears to be one half of a figure standing in the other room.
Can you give a specific example of Waters' antisemitism?
Climate change deniers, creationists, QAnon types, they also feel they're banging their heads against a brick wall. You're in good company. You lost me at Captain Obvious btw
There’s no single, authentic, Islamic reading of the Koran or Hadith or anything, there are multiple interpretations available. The extreme ones (who grab the headlines): Taliban, Iranian regime etc are not necessarily ‘more religious’ or ‘more devout’ than the people they rule, for all their references to scripture and all their solemn proclamations. The development of ‘Islamic’ politics in the these forms is a 20th/21st century phenomenon, nothing to do with a rise or decline in religiosity.
The idea that government laws, foreign policy etc are simply an expression of some ‘authentic’ faith is, I’m afraid, complete nonsense. State interests and party interests, personal rivalries, power struggles etc are always more important. This is aside from the fact that there are many courageous individuals standing up for women’s rights (esp education) who draw their inspiration directly from the Islamic tradition itself: Malala Yousefzai for example.
I don't want to sound harsh but your point might seem ‘pretty obvious’ if you subscribe to a one-dimensional understanding of Islam or contemporary Middle East politics. It’s the version that’s become popular in the 21st Century (post 9/11 really). It takes complex, multi-faceted issues and makes them highly simplistic. It is to religion or Middle East studies what Graham Hancock is to Ancient History.
