War Machine vs. War Horse: Eye in the Sky (Paths of Glory vs. Zero Dark Thirty)

On this episode we torture our listeners by bringing back former guest Dave from the podcast Pop Culture Case Study and we also talk quite a bit about the response to torture in Kathryn Bigelow’s ZERO DARK THIRTY. That film goes up against Stanley Kubrick’s PATHS OF GLORY in a theme of characters reacting to the distance between themselves and the killings they decide on, inspired by new release EYE IN THE SKY.
