One film overshadows the box office and pop culture in 1977, so do not worry, we speak about the importance of Star Wars before getting to our main topic: The Ascent by director Larisa Shepitko from the Soviet Union. We talk about this film's victory against the Soviet censors and our experience taking in challenging anti-war films like this one.
For our Patreon bonus episode we talk about the future we'd like to see for the Star Wars franchise.
