Show Notes
We're building off of last week's episode on pop culture today with a deep dive into film analysis with a special guest, Prof. Brian Brutlag from The Sociologist's Dojo! Brian talks with us about two seemingly unconnected concepts-- Zen Buddhism and the White Male Savior Complex-- and how they're now being used together in film narratives. Tune in here to learn more about how we can use sociology to make sense of film trends and stories, and also how we can use it to analyze cinematic flaws. You can check out Brian's blog at thesociologistsdojo.blogspot.com, and you know where to find us!
