This week, Phil and Tom tackle the not-so-subtle politics of 1984’s Red Dawn, which poses the question - What’s better than a good guy with a gun?
A teen boy with a overwhelming grief, the inability to process it, and a gun!
Red Dawn is a 1984 American film directed by John Milius, depicting a United States that has been invaded by the Soviet Union and its Cuban and Nicaraguan allies. However, the onset of World War III is in the background and not fully elaborated. The story follows a group of American high school students who resist the occupation with guerrilla warfare, naming themselves the "Wolverines", after their high school mascot. (via Wikipedia)
