Rivka and Frank are joined by Max Epstein, the Head of Content for Means TV, a worker-owned streaming service, for an in-depth conversation about Dreamworks’ horrifically animated 1998 film Antz. The MVC team unpack the film’s depiction of class consciousness spreading throughout an ant colony, the theme of individualism vs. collectivism which runs through the film, and question if the screenwriter read Marx (he must have). A rough transcript of the episode is available here.Next week’s movie is The Wizard of Oz. Links:
