Soylent Green - Free-Market Film Analysis
from The Last Nighters - Free-market Film Analysis · host The Last Nighters
We jump ahead a few years with returning guest, Dr. Dennis Foster, and see what more than two years of quarantine might do to a city and a people. 2022, New York City - 40 million people are living on top of each other after the scares of overpopulation and global warming myth become reality. That’s right, we're doing a back-to-back Richard Burton vs. Chuck Heston - battle royale - this time for all the marbles. In a densely overpopulated, starving New York City of the future, NYPD detective Robert Thorn (Charlton Heston) investigates the murder of an executive at rations manufacturer Soylent Corporation. With the help of elderly academic Solomon "Sol" Roth (Edward G. Robinson), Thorn begins to make real progress -- until the governor mysteriously pulls the plug. Obsessed with the mystery, Thorn steps out from behind the badge and launches his own investigation into the murder. This one hits home and is more relevant than ever as things we thought impossible are rapidly becoming our new reality and way of life. Join us next week as we dive into some “Kick Ass” with a kick-ass returning guest, Raylene Lightheart of The Blastoff! Show with her and Johnny Rocket!
