#27. Snowpiercer (2013) — A Shoot the WISB Subcast w/ James L. Sutter

Trains, bug patties, and revolutions, oh my! James L. Sutter joins the crew to discuss Joon-Ho Bong’s critically-acclaimed Snowpiercer (2013). We tackle the film’s symbology, its religious imagery, the allegories of capital and race in its narrative, and a whole lot more. Plus: there’s a big old debate at the end on how dramatic “serious” sf is sometimes treated differently than “fun” sf.

We hope you enjoy the episode!
