WAAAAKE UPPPPP! It's Juneteenth and Nik and Ethan are taking a look back to a story that is told time and time and again: pigs. Can't live with 'em. But lets see what Spike Lee's Do the Right Thing (1989) and Mathieu Kassovitz's La Haine (1995) have to say on the topic. Not even gonna pretend like we didn't love these films, but that's beside the point. The point is: is cinema doomed for a shallow grave? or to live on and on to die another day? So far so good...so far so good...
Next episode: This is Spinal Tap (1984) and Gentle and Soft: The Story of the Blue Jean Committee (2015) out July 3rd
