As I began to prepare for my recent episode with Jason from Binge Movies on Fascism in Cinema, it occurred to me that this would be a fascinating ongoing series in the next year or two in American history. For the next episode of the series, we are looking at authoritarian violence and the idea of due process in our society, and how it can be reflected in films. Joining me for this episode is Darin Lundberg from NostalgiaCast and Back to Bluey, and listen to us discuss Don Siegel’s “Dirty Harry”, Paul Michael Glaser’s “The Running Man”, and Christopher Nolan’s “The Dark Knight Rises”. It’s a very different discussion, but one worth taking in. I hope you enjoy!
