Six Degrees of Star Wars
Even before it became the property of a monstrously big corporation that started putting it everywhere, Star Wars was everywhere. Join us on a journey as we take the hyperspace lanes out of a galaxy far, far away and into other movies, finding all the ways George Lucas' flagship franchise surrounds us, binds us, and penetrates us.
Six Degrees of Star Wars
Ep. 32: These Prairie Tales are Grim
We visit 1990's Grim Prairie Tales, a movie where the cast, cinematographer, and concept are all really good. The results... well, you can listen and judge for yourself.
Content warning for discussions about depictions of anti-Native and anti-Black racism, including a lynching scene and misrepresentation of Native cultures.
