    *** Please note: these production notes are for reference only and may contain spoilers. We would appreciate you not revealing the characters’ secrets in editorial or social postings without proper warning. The film is under embargo until Wednesday, February 21 at 10:30pm CET / 4:30pm EST / 1:30pm PST. Thank you. *** Short Synopsis A young woman is involuntarily committed to a mental institution where she is confronted by her greatest fear - but is it real or is it a product of her delusion? Long Synopsis Making a startling trip into thriller territory with Unsane, director Steven Soderbergh plunges audiences into the suspense and drama of a resilient woman’s (Claire Foy, The Crown) fight to reclaim her freedom even as she risks her own sanity. Scarred from the trauma of being stalked, quick-witted Sawyer Valentini (portrayed by Ms. Foy) has relocated from Boston to Pennsylvania for a new life. As her mother Angela (Academy Award nominee Amy Irving) misses her back home and her office job is hardly an ideal employment opportunity, Sawyer remains on edge following her two years of being terrorized. To consult with a therapist, she goes for follow-up treatment at the Highland Creek Behavioral Center. Sawyer’s initial therapy session at the suburban complex run by clinician Ashley Brighterhouse (Aimée Mullins, Stranger Things) progresses well — until she unwittingly signs herself in for voluntary 24-hour commitment. Unable to leave the premises, Sawyer finds herself in close quarters with previously committed hellion Violet (Juno Temple, The Dark Knight Rises) and savvy Nate (Jay Pharoah, Saturday Night Live), who is battling an opioid addiction.

  • Entrepreneurship and Appropriation in the Magic Mike Series," Lateral 6.1 (2017)
    Broderick Chow, "Every Little Thing He Does: Entrepreneurship and Appropriation in the Magic Mike Series," Lateral 6.1 (2017). https://doi.org/10.25158/L6.1.3 This content is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License. Copyright is retained by authors. Issue 6.1 (Spring 2017) Every Little Thing He Does: Entrepreneurship and Appropriation in the Magic Mike Series Broderick Chow ABSTRACT This essay analyses the theatricalized performance of stripping in the popular lms Magic Mike (2013; dir. Steven Soderbergh) and its sequel, Magic Mike XXL (2015; dir. Gregory Jacobs). Following a critical dance studies approach that attends to the intersection of body and gesture with socio-political, historical, and economic structures, I suggest theatricalized sexual labour in these lms reveals the racial exclusions from the ideology of entrepreneurship. Considering the appropriation of black aesthetics in Magic Mike XXL’s performances of striptease, the lm seeks to evaporate the spectre of race, that is, the way the white fantasy of the entrepreneurial subject is supported by the appropriation of racialized and especially black labour. The Magic Mike movies are all about work. In the rst lm, Magic Mike (2012), director Steven Soderbergh’s concern is the post-industrial service economy, and the way it obliges protagonist Mike Lane (Channing Tatum) to take on many insecure jobs. It is on a roong contract that Mike meets young Adam (Alex Pettyfer), who he quickly recruits to another job, stripping for women at a club called XQuisite. By aligning striptease with other precarious jobs Soderbergh overlaps the fantasy of unattainable masculinity with the fantasy of vocational labor, which made the lm fodder for internet think-pieces—the combination of pecs, pop-and-lock and pop-Marxism was irresistible.1 At the same time, the Magic Mike movies are all about sex, as shown by the sequel, Magic Mike XXL (2015, directed by Gregory Jacobs).
