The French film 'La Haine', directed by Mathieu Kassovitz, is released. The movie depicts 24 hours in the lives of three young men in the Parisian suburbs following a riot.
Real life riots occur in several suburbs of Paris, sparked by the death of a young man in police custody, providing a real-world backdrop and inspiration for the themes in 'La Haine'.
In February 1993, Makomé M'Bowolé dies in police custody, one of the incidents that raised tensions in Parisian suburbs and influenced the social context of 'La Haine'.

Toy Story 5 is way better than any 5th iteration of a series has any right to be. Sequels really can keep being good if you give them time. This was a blast for the whole family. It's been a long time since so much of the humor in a movie hit just perfectly. Dads and moms were laughing just as much as the kids. An awesome movie.
Watched this in theaters. Was a fun popcorn movie. I didn't like it as much as the first movie though. The nostalgia moments are a lot of fun for me, but the first movie had a ton of those too.
I need to rewatch this and see if it moves from a like to a favorite for me. I forget about it, see it mentioned, and remember that it was way better than I thought it was going to be. This is a great one to watch if you haven't yet.
