Schrader Ep. 15: Patty Hearst (1988)

Death to the fascist insect that preys upon the life of the podcast! Just playing, nobody preys upon us. But we're back in Symbionese Liberation Army territory this week to talk Paul Schrader's 1988 biopic PATTY HEARST! Join us for a spirited conversation about Natasha Richardson, Ving Rhames, the movie's angle on leftism, ideological and physical consent, and Disneyland in 1974. It's a good ep! Content warning: we talk about sexual violence on this episode. Further Reading: An Oral History with Ericka Huggins by Fiona Thompson Black Against Empire by Joshua Bloom and Waldo E.
