[UNLOCKED] 316 - Mad Men: Far Away Places / Zabriskie Point

The Cinema of Mad Men reaches its midpoint on today’s episode, as we look at one of the show’s very best episodes alongside the sole Hollywood effort by one of the greatest filmmakers of all time. Corporate culture meets counterculture. In “Far Away Places”, we see three perspectives on a day from characters trying to escape. Peggy emulates Don in a pitch and ends up living in his dark side. Don and Megan get clams and sherbet at a HoJo’s and have their big blowout fight. Roger breaks on through to the other side on LSD. Then, we talk about Antonioni’s underrated classic Zabriskie Point, getting into the signs, the vibes, the music, and more. 00:00 - Mad Men "Far Away Places" 43:35 - Zabriskie Point
