The Liberal Hollywood Myth: Hollywood at War

Trendsetter or follower? Hollywood has made over 5,000 war films in the past 100 years. Today’s episode probes whether Hollywood has been complicit in building a culture of warmongering and nationalism, whether inadvertently or by design. To unpack it all, we look back over a few different eras in Hollywood and try to figure out whether the industry is holding up a mirror, or influencing our feelings toward war. One thing the episode destroys is the myth that Hollywood is the cultural mouthpiece for the left.
