A Guy Named Joe (1943, Victor Fleming)

The Stop Button Posted by Andrew Wickliffe on Aug 24, 2019

I’m not sure how to talk about A Guy Named Joe without some spoilers. But I’m going to try. Like a test. A Guy Named Joe is a propaganda picture, but one less about jingoism and more about the American trademarked Freedom. Only it’s a specific kind of Freedom, it’s the kind of Freedom you can read more

Red Dust (1932, Victor Fleming)

The Stop Button Posted by Andrew Wickliffe on Mar 1, 2019

I’m not sure how much would be different about Red Dust if the film weren’t so hideously racist, particularly when it comes to poor Willie Fung (as the houseboy), but at least it wouldn’t go out on such a nasty note.
