Episode 6: The Gen X Movie Club presents Red Dawn

Join us as we (re)visit this classic 80s World War III saga “Red Dawn.”  It’s an action packed film featuring a (very young) all star 80s cast.  Most notably, “Red Dawn” dares to explore the possibility of war on the domestic front.  What might a foreign invasion on US soil look like?  And how might we react?  It’s a war film with a conscience but does the message land the same today?Before listening to Episode 6, we encourage you to (re)watch “Red Dawn.”  Then tune in to hear our take on this epic war saga.  How does this film read in 2025?  Is the message the same?  Have the antagonists changed over time?  Are we still retelling the same narrative today?  We’re curious to see if you agree with our take on this classic, star studded 80s war film.
