Episode Description
Here is a special bonus episode of The Celluloid Mirror that’s just a little bit shorter than Zack Snyder’s Justice League: Justice is Gray and a tad longer than Steven Spielberg’s Schindler’s List – the two films we are discussing! This ep was recorded live in front of a (livestream) audience in July 2023. Our patrons voted for this, so blame them.
It is a strange time to release this discussion, which was recorded over 4 months ago. We are reaching the end of the temporary truce between Israel and Hamas, a brief respite from the violence that has already killed over 15,000 Palestinians and about 1,200 Israelis, as of today, 11/28/23. Join us in calling for a lasting ceasefire – no bombing, no ground war, the release of all hostages, and involvement of the international community to negotiate for lasting peace.
