Show Notes
This week, we're diving deep into the gritty, high-tech world of cyberpunk with two landmark films from 1995. First up is Johnny Mnemonic, where Keanu Reeves takes us on a data-smuggling adventure through a dystopian future filled with corporate espionage and cybernetic enhancements. Then, we'll explore Strange Days, a film that delves into the dark underbelly of a near-future Los Angeles, where recorded memories and virtual experiences are traded on the black market.
Join us as we dissect these cyberpunk classics and their impact on the genre.
