TV & Film
Neighbours fight neighbours in this week’s pod, as we watch Alex Garland’s new, maybe-too-close-to-real-life, dystopian thriller Civil War and compare it with Ken Loach’s 1995 Spanish Civil War picture Land and Freedom. Both of these films are certainly thought-provoking, with action, bloodshed, tragedy and tension. But which one makes the best use of a rucksack? Which takes the most humane view of its characters? Which features a cameo from a well-known screenwriter? And which makes us think of Billy Bragg?
Plus a revisit to a dour and dull desert epic, a doc about a 60s TV icon, an ad from Netflix about their follow up to Three Body Problem, a suggestion for what Alex Garland should call his next book, a whole crowd of people in a room talking about politics, and one of us steps in ‘do’ while the other one forgets what they’re doing. (The joy of live radio!)
