Michael and Us: God and Country
Manage episode 348497836 series 3298585
Released shortly before the attack on Pearl Harbor, Howard Hawks' SERGEANT YORK (1941) was an attempt to rouse popular support for America entering the Second World War. We excavate one of the biggest box office hits of its day and find a movie in which God and Country are pitted together, and Country wins. PLUS: we hash over some of the drastic and unhappy changes that have happened to our local government in Toronto, Canada.
Michael and Us is a podcast about political cinema and our crumbling world hosted by Will Sloan and Luke Savage.
