Kevin Costner's new Western epic 'Horizon: An American Saga - Chapter 1' is being slammed by critics following its premiere at the Cannes Film Festival. 'Horizon: An American Saga - Chapter 1' is the first film in writer, director & star Costner's massive four-picture gamble that he famously leveraged one of his homes to help finance, spending $38 million out of pocket for the $90 million-budgeted film. And while the movie received a 10-minute standing ovation at Cannes, the reviews so far have been overwhelmingly negative.

_my-name-is-khan---mnik---shah-rukh-khan-kajol.webp "My Name is Khan, introduces us to a global, multicultural theme from the<br/>perspective of an innocent Muslim in the horror of the post-9/11 United States.<br/>Victimized for being autistic in his native India, Rizvan Khan also faces the<br/>perennial violence and hate generated by the anti-Muslim pogroms there. While<br/>an impressionable child, his mother, Razia Khan, teaches him a very profound<br/>ethical lesson - that irrespective of caste, class, race, religion, or ethnicity, there<br/>are only two kinds of people - good ones who do good deeds, and bad ones who<br/>do bad deeds.<br/>After immigrating to the United States, Rizvan works as a salesman for his<br/>brother Zakir Khan’s herbal beauty products company. Due to his strong work<br/>ethic, he is able to enjoy the benefits of the American Dream. Despite opposition<br/>from his brother, he marries a Hindu divorcee, Mandira, who has a 6-year old son,<br/>Sameer, and becomes part of her family. They work hard, lead a happy life, and<br/>are well integrated into a multicultural community.<br/>After the tragic events of 9/11 Rizvan’s whole world turns upside down.<br/>Due to prejudice, Mandira's customers abandon her beauty salon and she is forced<br/>to close and seek work elsewhere. 9/11 marks a watershed moment concerning<br/>the rights of Muslims in the US. The ignorance, fear, racism, and hysteria<br/>generated by the media lead to stereotyping, demonization, stigmatization, and<br/>brutal attacks against Muslims. The film depicts the cruel, inhumane, and racist<br/>character of American society, where Muslims are considered less than human<br/>and their rights trampled upon with impunity, based on unsubstantiated and vague<br/>suspicions. Due process and equal protection rights are disregarded due to the<br/>hysteria generated by terrorism. We see events get even uglier when Sameer,<br/>Mandira's son, is killed by four racist bullies at his school. Mandira is beside<br/>herself with grief and blames Rizvan and his Muslim-ness for all their woes. She<br/>asks Rizvan to leave and only return when he is able to tell the President of the<br/>United States that he is not a terrorist. Accordingly, Rizvan leaves San Francisco<br/>in search of the President to deliver his message.<br/>This movie depicts the gross violations of the civil/human rights<br/>experienced by the Muslim community in the US, which arose from prejudice,<br/>collective blame, and hate incited against Muslims. While attempting to meet<br/>President Bush, Rizvan is arrested for suspicion of being a terrorist and is placed<br/>in solitary confinement, in flagrant violation of his constitutional rights. He is<br/>strip/cavity searched and dehumanized by overzealous law enforcement agents<br/>and classified as a dangerous terrorist. In time, due to the advocacy of Rizvan's<br/>friends, the authorities realize they have made a mistake and release him.")

Demand for copper is being driven higher by artificial intelligence, the exponential growth of data centers, the green energy revolution, and increased military spending. Copper prices have already hit record highs of $10,000 per ton in London, more than double the pandemic lows in early 2020. Currie predicts copper prices could surge another 50% to $15,000 per ton due to tight supply and growing demand from multiple sectors.")
