    003: Politicinema III - Dr. Strangelove (1964)

    This 1964 political satire black comedy completely changed the way the public confronted its deepest dread. In this episode, we examine how the brilliance of Dr. Strangelove converted Cold War paranoia into comedy and suggests that there’s a slightly sunnier side to nuclear annihilation.

    002: Politicinema II - A Face in the Crowd (1957)

    Episode Notes This 1957 drama resonates more with the American people of today than ever before. In this episode, we draw parallels between A Face in the Crowd and our incumbent president, and address the dangers of the public of buying into certain narratives, particularly when it disregards the seller's character or credibility.

    001: Politicinema I - Casablanca (1942)

    Episode Notes This timeless romantic war drama achieved far more than a charming love story. In this debut episode, we explore how Casablanca concentrated the conflicted sentiments of an entire nation into a single fictional character, one who seemed all too real to his country of origin’s people.
