Tiny Bytes: RSA
tldr RSA works by exploiting the fact we can’t easily factor 2 large prime numbers and group theory to make a trapdoor permutation, aka a function that turns x into y but y can’t easily be turned into x without a secret. However, implementing RSA gets tricky because there’s lots of subtle attacks.MathRSA takes advantage of the group Z^*_{n} (multiplicative group of integers modulo n). This is the non-negative integers less than n that have an inverse modulo n. 1 x 1 mod n = 1. 0 x int = 0 so ...

It’s Friday night. A little inebriated. Just watched Wes Anderson’s The French Dispatch. Really enjoyed it!
Sooo tonight let’s talk about it. What did I think about it? I enjoy thinking about stories and film analysis. It would be fun to have some exploration as an enjoyer and critic.
I feel like I’m rambling. Definitely a a bit of a tangent but not in a bad way. My gut says good ideas but needs refinement. I can’t help but think of Zeffirelli needing editing from Lucinda Krementz.
Need doesn’t feel like the correct word. Part of the story revolved around the poetic words of student revolutionary’s that so perfectly captured the moment. Of course followed by some fun with the narrator/writer briskly mentioning that she cleaned up some sentences of his message and couldn’t read part of it.
Heart of Wes Anderson Movies. Silliness / absurdness. Sad/melancholy emotion -- feeling that time move on and things don’t always get better. A story book feeling / I’m reading something. Like how authors can be praised for their prose, there is a poetic/flowery/expressive way about Anderson’s movies -- the dialog, the set design, the character’s journeys, the cinematography.
What did I think of The French Dispatch? I loved it. Sometimes anthologies can make a movie/show slowdown but there wasn’t any part that made me feel like the movie was dragging. In fact, towards the end of the The Concrete Masterpiece, I was worried the other stories might take up too much time. I looked at the time remaining I was surprised there was about an hour (+-20 minutes) left. I also feel like the stories had just the correct amount of connections. I tend to be a little bothered when the stories are completely independent. I’m not quite sure why. My expectations for stories is that it’s one long connected story and I feel that leads me to always be searching. If it’s not the it’s a little jaring. The stories do have some connection with little details and the backdrop of the newspaper. The Wes Anderson style and the French vibes also add to the connective tissue.
How would I describe the movie more as a critic? If you love Wes Anderson movies you’ll love this movie. The cinematography, sets, symmetry, vibes, shots, absurd&silly stories, and the way it makes you feel. It made me feel happy with a smidgen of a lingering sadness. Also the acting was great.
I went in expecting Wes Anderson and I got it. I loved it. Part of me loves how refined it is and part of me wonders if it was too Wes Anderson-y. You’ll also need to pay attention, towards the end especially poetic, verbose language goes fast with amazing visual detail. Understanding the story, visuals, and acting is hard at points. Not in a bad way. Wes Anderson always throws in some snappy, fast sequences and characters, and it’s dialed up even for him. Playing around with time a bit too (the solider sequence confused me a little). You just need to go into the movie knowing you’ll be seeing a Wes Anderson film that you’ll need to pay attention to.
Also because I like the Rewatchables gonna do some of their categories:
Best Scene: The Cycling Reporter, electric chair, Ending of The Concrete Masterpiece (from wheelchair camera fight to the zoom out), final chat with the chef
Best quote: don’t remember anything but No Crying
Hasn’t Aged Well: Just come out. No age
Mountain: idk
Dion Waters: Muscle police man
Joey pants: Roebuck Wright (always Bernard to me), Adrien Brody (bc recently watched winning time, saw him in something else, and haven’t seen the pianist)
Overreacting: no sure, lots of Wes Anderson things
Netflix show: An episode with a new story def (midnight gospel, animated starwars, documentary now)
Won the movie: Wes Anderson
Good night y’all. No editing or grammar check tonight.
