The film tells the story of the Federal Theatre Project — a New Deal program that funded public theater productions around the U.S. during the Great Depression — and the reactionary forces that ultimately killed it. Rivka, Frank, and Harvey explore the film’s central themes of ownership in the arts and political censorship. As always, Harvey provides a detailed explainer on the historical context and accuracy of the film.Links:The Most Radical Speech in Presidential History (Gravel Institute) A rough transcript of the episode is available here.For next week’s Valentine’s Day episode, we’ll be watching the 2008 rom-com 27 Dresses.To access MVC PREMIUM EPISODES or LEAVE US A TIP click here. MVC donates its ad space to progressive or leftist causes.
