This week Raquel takes Punk Rock 101 with THE DECLINE OF THE WESTERN CIVILIZATION and our guest, film producer, Giorgio Angelini. She sure doesnt like whats going on here – she is genuinely shocked. But is the overt offensiveness just schtick? The forced edginess of these ‘70s/’80s punk seems similar to 4chan trolls. Why did the director choose to present race the way she did? We get into the ethics of impartiality in documentary filmmaking. Raphael tries to explain to Raquel why punks hate hippies. And we cannot overstate how shook this film left Raquel.
The Generation Splice is film podcast where retired psychologist Dr. Raquel Martinez, a Baby Boomer through and through, & her son Raphael Jose Martinez, a cranky millennial punk rocker/former music journalist, & current film writer, discuss various films through the lens of their generation & personal experiences. Every week one host picks a film to dissect & see if they can splice together the generation gap via their love of film.
