Michael and Us: Nuance Mongering

FALLING DOWN (1993) features Michael Douglas as an ordinary man who's mad as hell, turning into a Travis Bickle for the Rush Limbaugh era. It's Hollywood's attempt to make a serious statement about a post-Cold War malaise, and folks, it's a very, very bad movie. PLUS: we share memories of Canada's greatest bad filmmaker.Michael and Us is a podcast about political cinema and our crumbling world hosted by Will Sloan and Luke Savage.
