Zoom Party 8-17-25: Parapolitical Theater II (Patreon)

We only made it through six films in nearly three and a half hours, but nonetheless much ground was covered. Joining me were Laura Shapiro and Orion St. Peter to breakdown Seven Days in May, Perdita Durango, Winter Kills, Missing, Tough Guys Don't Dance, and Starship Troopers. While not planned as such, this round table managed to be shockingly thematically coherent.

For instance, the explorations of Seven Days and Winter Kills provided us the opportunity to consider the decisively mixed legacy of the Kennedy family. The legacy/attitudes of American colonialism weigh heavy on Perdita, Missing, and Troopers. Mind control and Gladio-type activities were a recurring thread as well. There were even some Downardian musings.

Suffice to say, there was no shortage curious subjects covered. As always, I hope everyone enjoys.

Missing can be viewed here.
