Description
Cold War Cinema is a podcast about movies from the early years of the Cold War (post-WWII through the 1950s). Each episode focuses on one film, and hosts Jason, Anthony, and Tim discuss its historical context and examine themes related to anti-communist hysteria and other fraught political issues at the time.
Season One discusses films made during the infamous House Un-American Activities Committee (HUAC) anti-communist hearings—one film per episode, all directed by blacklisted directors. We hope you enjoy!
