  • Summary

  • We talk through Mississippi Burning, starring Gene Hack, Willem Dafoe and Frances McDormand and take a look at the real history behind the events shown in the movie. We analyse the controversies surrounding it and ask whether it’s fundamentally racist, of it’s time, misunderstood or a luvvies’ version of a middle class angst-ridden redemption.

    Plus the genius of the great Gene Hackman, the world’s most incomprehensible graph, sweaty, sweaty armpits and brow-line glasses, and an analysis of KKK bumper stickers.

    Have an opinion on whether the Hackman-nut-grab is the greatest prehension of the testicles in cinema history, or would just like to get in touch? Drop us a line at historicalmoviespodcast@gmail.com
