Oh Hollywood, do something with this please 🙏
Fuck no, not Hollywood.
They would try to make some kind of morality lesson in it to appeal to liberal viewers and make the thief pay for his crime with some kind of emotional consequence like he has to give up the jewels to free his daughter from custody or something.
Hollywood has taught us over and over that we, the workers and people crushed under the boot of capital get NO reward.
Think about how many times you've seen this scene:
"We're too heavy, we won't make it to the island! We need to dump more weight!"
"But... but... all we have left to throw out is the treasure!"
It's the same as when they portray overworked, uneducated rednecks as "Real Americans" and "Patriots" for struggling for nothing. They want you to have nothing and be happy for it because it's "morally correct" and never dream of winning against a stacked system.
Nah that’s a fair point.
Ok, rephrase, talented people known as amateurs do something with this. 🙏
