Welcome to Red Brick’s first in a series of articles about Hollywood Truth Drops. I am an ‘affiliate’ of Red Brick’s, ‘Infiltration & Observation Unit’ (IOU), I am a Forensic Film Reviewer, and it is my job to examine the Mainstream Media looking for: Truth Drops, Secret Messaging and ‘Predictive Programming’ (PP) contained within Film and Television Industries (FTI). I also look for hidden mockery towards the everyday people who watch the products of the FTI.
My work is published under the name, Mary N. Barron, which is not my real name of course. I am an international asset for IOU, which is a neat way of saying that I ‘live and eat on the hoof, and that is enough about me.
The following is an extract from: https://people.howstuffworks.com/predictive-programming-or-when-movies-predict-real-events.htm and it provides the following description of PP: ‘Predictive Programming is the theory that ideas, situations and new technologies are carefully written into Movies, TV Shows and Books to groom the general population into accepting societal changes.’
Many people believe that the Hollywood Brand is used, if not owned, by the Elites to announce its intentions in plain sight about certain events. People also believe that it provides examples of how the Elites mock us all. An alleged example of this ‘mockery’ was shown to the public in the 1983 film, ‘Trading Places.’
The film is about two of the financial world’s ‘Elites,’ the Duke brothers, Randolph and Mortimer. The brothers own Duke & Duke, a successful commodities brokerage in Philadelphia.
In the film we learn that the brothers hold opposing views on the ‘Nature versus Nurture’ issue, so they make a $1 wager, a dollar being the “usual amount” for their bet and agree to conduct an experiment switching the lives of two people at opposite sides of the social hierarchy, observing the results when their life circumstances are swapped.
Upper-crust executive Louis Winthorpe III, an employee of the Dukes, is framed by the brothers for a crime he did not commit, with the brothers then installing the street-smart down-and-out hustler, Billy Ray Valentine, in his position.
Valentine has the street-savvy attitude and makes the Dukes millions whilst trading stocks on the market. Meanwhile, Winthorpe, whose friends have turned their back on him, is now down and out and living with a prostitute who has taken pity on him.
Billy Ray Valentine overhears the Dukes discussing the $1 bet, so he tracks down Winthorpe and brings him up to speed. When Winthorpe and Valentine uncover the scheme, they set out to turn the tables on the Dukes.
Winthorpe and Valentine travel to New York’s Wall Street, where they enter the commodities trading floor to execute their plan, having made their own $1 bet to see if they can ruin the brothers and get them to lose their wealth, which they do, as well as turning in an enormous profit for themselves.
The Dukes, now broken and penniless confront Valentine and Winthorpe on the exchange floor, both of whom mockingly explain to the Dukes that they made a $1 wager on whether they could get rich while also making the Dukes poor.
Valentine collects his prize from Winthorpe while Randolph Duke collapses from a heart attack. Mortimer Duke protests to the officials as their seats on the exchange are put up for sale, their assets are seized and their holdings frozen. There you have it, the film plot in a nutshell.
So, are everyday people the subject of an Elitist wager? Red Brick published an article about cloth masks entitled ‘Cloth Masks – A Very Unscientific View.’ In the article Red Brick questions, ‘why are people purchasing ‘comic and fun themed masks’ to wear in buildings and other places open to the public, in the likely belief that it is helping keep them safe, when the manufacturers information clearly shows that the masks are not for medical use?’
If this is an example of mockery by the Elites through the everyday people buying the masks for a bit of fun, but also in the belief that it is protecting them and their children, because they did not read the labelling re non-medical use, then an Elite is $1 richer and the joke is well and truly on us, isn’t it?!
In summary,’ is it any wonder that it feels like we are being played on a Global level and all for the sake of a $1 bet? I would not be surprised if this were the case, but based on all of the information so far presented to me, I find it to be inconclusive, so, what do you think?
In my next article for Red Brick’s ‘Hollywood Truth Drops’ series, I will be examining the 1975 Film, ‘Three Days of the Condor.’ I think you ‘Truthers’ out there will find this one way further up your street and you will definitely enjoy it, so do not miss it.
Mary N. Barron, for Red Brick.
- EDITOR’S NOTE: Red Brick will continue to use the term $1 wager, or $1 bet within our satirical reporting style, when describing the enormity of certain events and the type of situation where the phrase, ‘you could not make it up,’ would be more than apt to describe the actual situation itself.
