You think you may not ever need it, and then one day you’re relying on an ancient history undergrad class to poke holes in modern communications scholarship because folks are forgetting about Bessus of Bactria’s assassination of Darius III.

Guys, this is possibly my favorite episode yet. We discussed a film that is criminally underseen, one of my favorite films of all time: Letter Never Sent (1959). If you are even a little bit curious about socialist realist cinema, check this episode out. coldwarcinema.com/s2-ep-11-let...

New episode is live! The CWC team discusses the brilliant Soviet film LETTER NEVER SENT (1959), dir. by Mikhail Kalatozov. We explain the tenets of socialist realism, the function of the Western genre in the US context vs. the USSR context, and more. coldwarcinema.com/s2-ep-11-let...

1. Now, Voyager 2. Johnny Guitar 3. The Awful Truth 4. Sabotage

Good morning, Yeah! Yeah! Yeah! The Beatles made their American television debut on The Ed Sullivan Show 62 years ago today. 50,000 people requested tickets to see the taping at CBS’s Studio 50 and more than 73 million viewers tuned in. A watershed moment in broadcasting history and Beatlemania!

Finding out which oomfs remain pro cheating and which believe in good faith conduct in real time

Today is John Williams’ 94th birthday. I have been thinking about what it means that one man wrote the score for so much of our collective childhood, and it occurred to me that he was seven years old when Wizard of Oz was released.

The nap I am about to nap

Chaplin’s Tramp, that Little Fellow, debuted 112 years ago today in the split-reel Kid Auto Races at Venice. However light on narrative, it’s fascinatingly reflexive proof that someone has always turned into a goof in the presence of a camera, and that we love making movies about making movies.
