Peter Debruge Chief Film CriticWhen Kevin Macdonald set out to make “The Mauritanian,” the director must have found himself identifying to some degree with defense attorney Nancy Hollander.

The lawyer, played here by Jodie Foster, braved insult and scorn when she took up the case of Mohamedou Ould Slahi, who was arrested in the wake of the 9/11 terrorist attacks.

At the time (and likely to this day), many in the U.S. military believed Slahi to be involved in aiding and perhaps even recruiting the hijackers who flew the planes into the World Trade Center.

Touring extensively in 2016 and 2017, ahead of its first album which arrived in early 2018, the band released but one song during that time — “Loveless,” which owes more than its name to the seminal album by drone rockers My Bloody Valentine — and made it available exclusively on DSPs.

Breakdancer Asia One trying to raise $80,000 to rescue Afghan hip-hop dancers from Taliban
The Guardian reports, when a member of the group (labelled as Moshtagh, his actual name redacted for safety) reached out to Wu in hopes of strengthening their international presence. But when the Taliban launched an offensive on Afghanistan in 2021, Moshtagh’s group made the snap decision to flee the nation’s capital of Kabul.Wu told The Guardian that such a decision was “based on complete fear”, noting that Moshtagh and his cohort were driven by an “overwhelming sense of survival” because “they felt so threatened by the Taliban based on their western practices”.She explained that Moshtagh pleaded for Wu to help them out: “He said, ‘I feel like you guys have an obligation to help us,’ and I was like, ‘What do you mean?’ And he said, ‘Well, you know, we’re all just hip-hop family.’ And … the more and more we spoke, the more and more I realised that much of what he was saying was true.”Wu – who runs the LA-based non-profit No Easy Props, which runs hip-hop classes and events for the city’s marginalised communities – said the exchange “awoke [her] thought process”.

‘The Mauritanian’ Is A Harrowing Condemnation of Bush-Era Torture [Review]
Featuring a standout, awards-worthy performance by Tahir Rahim, Kevin Macdonald’s “The Mauritanian,” adapted from Mohamedou Ould Salahi’s memoir “Guantanamo Diary,” about his prolonged imprisonment at the titular base, is a staggering work of docudrama, that highlights the horrors that the American government inflicted on terrorist suspects post-9/11. READ MORE: The 100 Most Anticipated Films Of 2021 Rahim plays Salahi, a Mauritanian who lives in Germany and, post-9/11, is arrested and renditioned to Guantanamo Bay for three years on vague accusations of orchestrating the attacks.

‘The Mauritanian’ Film Review: Jodie Foster Fights for Justice in Sluggish Gitmo Drama
Watch Video: Jodie Foster Defends Accused 9/11 Terrorist in 'The Mauritanian' TrailerThere’s a moment in which “The Mauritanian” flirts with complicated subject matter, namely by suggesting that even if Mohamedou (played by Rahim) is guilty of being one of the main architects of 9/11, he’s still entitled to legal representation and due process. No sooner does the film suggest this than it immediately turns around and establishes Mohamedou’s innocence, which turns the movie into yet another tale of a crusading lawyer fighting for a blameless defendant.In November 2001, Mohamedou — a Mauritanian subject who’s been working as an engineer in Germany — is taken in for questioning and then suddenly disappears.

Jodie Foster Says ‘The Mauritanian’ Reflects The Residual Effects Of America’s Post-9/11 Transformation
Though she has starred in some of the most indelible movies in cinema history—Taxi Driver, The Silence of the Lambs, The Accused—and won two Oscars for doing so, Jodie Foster’s output has slowed in recent years. And it is not a paucity of roles, she says, but rather a decision to become more selective about what she takes on. For Kevin Macdonald’s The Mauritanian, based on the true story of Mohamedou Ould Salahi, a terror suspect held for 15 years in Guantanamo Bay without charge, that choice was undeniable. Foster plays Nancy Hollander, the lawyer determined to give him a full defense.

'I've found the best smelling coconut body mist– it's £37 but could be a designer perfume'
Growing up as a girl in the late nineties and early noughties, I was exposed to an era of dreadful body sprays.The memory of harsh or overly sweet mists dominating classrooms and school discos was enough for me to abandon them as soon as I could afford to switch to nicer perfumes. I never imagined I'd be pleased to see the day when body mists made a comeback, but they have indeed made a comeback this year. I believe Sol de Janeiro and its range of elegant sprays are largely responsible for making body mists the ultimate handbag accessory that everyone craves.
