About this listen

Hello everyone, this is Dwayne Monroe, the host, along with Dennis Claxton and RC Charles Roberts of the Film Conversations podcast. In today’s show, we continue a conversation we started in the previous episode: the ways film shapes political views and the value of film to understanding politics.

This has turned out to be a rich topic and so, we’re planning a third episode to give Dennis a chance to fully develop his ideas which were cut a bit short this time around. There is, as always, a full listing of the films referenced during our conversation. I hope you enjoy.
