Ghostbusters (w/ David Sirota)
Manage episode 354708111 series 3441224
On the inaugural episode of Movies vs. Capitalism, Rivka and Frank are joined by journalist, writer, and The Lever founder David Sirota to discuss the Reagan-era classic Ghostbusters. They discuss how the film’s pro-business, anti-government messages are baked into almost every scene, which is extra troubling considering the movie was was largely marketed to children. They also dig into the film’s sexual politics, specifically how Peter Venkman is a next level creep.
