À propos de cet audio
Hello everyone, this is Dwayne Monroe, one of the hosts, alongside Dennis Claxton and RC Charles Roberts, of the Film Conversations podcast.
In today’s episode, we talk about the films that shaped our political views. Or, I should say, we intended to talk about this but global events intervened and we found ourselves talking about geopolitics and war (with relevant US domestic politics included for good measure).
Eventually, we found our way to discussing film, including RC’s mention of the 1992 released Bob Roberts and my mention of Akira Kurosawa’s Ran, released in 1985.
This was a good discussion and although we didn’t spend as much time on film as originally planned, fear not, there will be a part two.
We hope you enjoy.
