Michael and Us: One Insular Tahiti

from Jacobin Radio

With Trump's indictment in the news, we thought it might be a good time to watch the movie that has been more influential on QAnon than any other: Ridley Scott's little-loved seafaring adventure WHITE SQUALL (1996). We parse this half-forgotten film to figure out why, exactly, the QAnon people love it so much. "Where we go one, we go all!"Michael and Us is a podcast about political cinema and our crumbling world hosted by Will Sloan and Luke Savage.
