Iñárritu's Digger
Shownotes
REUPLOAD BECAUSE HALF THE EPISODE WAS MISSING:
In this early release episode, Ryan and Todd discuss Alejandro González Iñárritu's recent film Digger. Widely panned upon its release a couple of weeks ago--though seemingly embraced by audiences and some contemporary revisions of initial reactions--Ryan and Todd extol the film's virtues. Chief among them being the film's insistence that we look at our contemporary situation regarding the climate from the position of retroactivity. The hosts bring to Freud's Future of an Illusion to bear on the film as well, tying it in to recent conversations. Try to see this movie before it leaves theaters forever, if you can.
Bonus: Here's Calgary Flames goalie Devin Cooley espousing Why Theory's take on the unconscious dimension of sporting excellence.
