The United States Studies Centre has partnered with the crew at the Film Versus Film podcast for a six-part series discussing movies that engage with US electoral politics.
In the third episode, Film Versus Film hosts Craig Anderson, Bruce Isaacs and Herschel Isaacs compare two Oscar-nominated comedies that tell us a lot about the US election. One is a prince and the pauper tale, the other a microcosm of election meddling; they are Ivan Reitman’s Dave and Alexander Payne’s Election.
This special podcast series will culminate in a screening on 4 November of A24's Civil War followed by a special recording of the podcast. Book your tickets now.
