La banca prossima qui vicino ? Non è ! : A review, by Tweet, of Proxima (2019)
'Next' is what the film-archetype of a casting-director irritatedly shouts...
Proxima (2019) :— THE AGENT APSLEY #ScrapUniversalCredit #JC4PM2019 (@THEAGENTAPSLEY) August 20, 2020
Because they never said anything about Proxima Centauri, and it is just the same word as in 'La prossima volta' (in Italian), i.e. 'Next [or another] time'

As one reported earlier on Proxima (in an e-mail to Cambridge Film Projects) :
Rehashing too many competitive / 'who gets to do what and why' elements from First Man (2018) ; often just reminding of films such as In a Better World (2010) or, more so, A Thousand Times Goodnight (2013) ; and with huge elements of implausibility vis-à-vis what happens with Sarah's (Eva Green's) and her crashingly badly named daughter Stella - though the performance by Zélie Boulant, playing Stella, was easily one of the best things about Proxima !
For #UCFF, Gosling's being centrifuged to many Gs in First Man (2018) was part of breaking the credibility-barrier passim - a need to remind oneself, all along, that unmistakable Ryan Gosling¹ was meant to be Neil Armstrong :— THE AGENT APSLEY #ScrapUniversalCredit #JC4PM2019 (@THEAGENTAPSLEY) August 17, 2020
In Proxima (2019), Eva Green got 9G, but we didn't² !
³ In a different sort of device, which is more gyroscopic, Gosling pulled his Gs here :https://t.co/Lq5tcjwrvm— THE AGENT APSLEY #ScrapUniversalCredit #JC4PM2019 (@THEAGENTAPSLEY) August 18, 2020
