Show Notes

This episode of Philosophy In Film, we exit the polar deep freeze and examine the 2005 Political Action Film, "V For Vendetta". A somewhat controversial beer selection sets the table for the philosophical discussion this episode, as we delve into the justification of coercive institutions (Philosopher's Corner - 33:30), eggs in a basket recipes, perspective, radicalization, anarchy, and some of the parallels between recent events in the US and the final scenes of the movie. A quick discussion of the differences between the movie and graphic novel closes out our longest episode to date.
