Complicating things further, it’s a quasi-sequel to an earlier movie, 2015’s “Buzzard,” built around the same two main characters. While you don’t have to watch the former to get anything out of the latter, it helps make the second movie feel more like a complete statement about a long, strange friendship and less like an exercise in audience manipulation and aesthetic daring (lots of long, unbroken takes, either done from very far away or uncomfortably close to faces or significant objects). 

You feel for both men, as pathetic and lost as they are, because their brokenness and desperation bleed through all the knucklehead physical comedy on display. It’s not for everyone. I don’t even know if it was for me, really. Considering how many images and moments are stuck in my mind, maybe it was.

My initial reaction is that I admired this movie more than I liked it. That’s primarily for its two lead performances, which are daring yet controlled, and its chutzpah in withholding and revealing new shadings in the primary relationship while feeding the viewer fresh bits of information. I liked it more after watching “Buzzard.” The star rating at the top of this review reflects how I felt after watching both movies. Without the previous film, it’s half a star less. This is not to say that either film is something that can be strictly quantified with numbers—no film is, though critics make peace with the exercise because a lot of people love and need ratings—but only that this viewer’s experience of “Vulcanizadora” deepened from having seen the movie that led to it.

Drawing on anonymous testimony from faculty, students, and China specialists, our investigation confirms that the CCP runs an extensive intelligence‑gathering network at Stanford. The existential question is straightforward: how should we respond? First and foremost, the status quo of branding those who discuss this issue as racist must end. We wrote this article not to advance a policy position but to highlight a silenced reality. Sound policy depends on evidence, not repression. The nation that develops superior technologies will gain a critical military edge over its adversaries. China cannot be that nation. Working together, U.S. universities and the federal government need to take serious steps to defend the integrity of our nation’s mission-critical research. The future of freedom depends on it.
