![]() It’s told with the help of sound effects and a wig, with Tyson playing both himself and his profanity-spewing opponent, who he at once point compares to “Night of the Living Dead” and Jason from “Friday the 13th” for his ability to pop back up after being laid out. The most enjoyable anecdote is an unexpectedly lengthy account of a relatively minor moment in Tyson’s life - his out-of-the-ring brawl with fellow boxer Mitch Green. The title of the show suggests unvarnished openness, but what it really is is an alternate personal history, a refutation of public assumptions - it presumes you’re already familiar with the signposts of its subject’s life, and skips through those, dwelling on certain events while completely brushing over others, including much of Tyson’s boxing career. Lee was perhaps reluctant to sand away all of those edges, and what we see onstage in “Mike Tyson: Undisputed Truth” is a bumpy but riveting affair that stretches from Tyson’s tough childhood in Brownsville, Brooklyn to the highs of his championship career, his imprisonment, addiction, and his current place - clean, sober and vegan (!), a family man. ![]() ‘Secret Invasion’ Review: Marvel’s Superhero-Lite Spy Thriller Is High on Twists, Low on Wits ![]() ![]() ![]() "It's more a matter of looking at it from a female perspective," the Co-creator told CBR. Is Cursed a feminist King Arthur, then? Miller would prefer to let audiences make their own minds up. "With the character of Nimue, she's a wonderful vehicle for bringing the underlying magic of the legend to the surface, and really playing with it for all it's worth." "The role of women throughout the legend has always been bad and not paid proper attention," Frank Miller told CBR in a recent interview. ![]() Wheeler and Miller's Nimue, played by Katherine Langford, is similarly put into a leadership role when the Church's Red Paladins threaten to wipe the Fey - her race - from existence, dethroning Arthur as the central hero in the process. In fact, Cursed - whether intentionally or not - owes a huge debt to Bradley's novel, which transforms Morgaine into a freedom-fighting priestess who rallies the indigenous Celts against colonizing Christians to protect Paganism. RELATED: Cursed: Katherine Langford On Reinventing Nimue As A Modern, Fantasy Heroineīefore Cursed, the most significant overhaul of the legends came from Marion Zimmer Bradley's The Mists of Avalon, a radical feminist reimagining that added flesh to the bare-bones characterization of Morgaine (Morgan Le Fey). ![]() |
