166. The World's Fastest Indian

This week on episode #166 of The Harsh Language Podcast, we dive into The World’s Fastest Indian, a movie that feels like it should be talked about way more than it is. With an incredible performance from Anthony Hopkins and a simple, inspiring story, it’s the kind of film people say they want more of, so why does it feel like everyone forgot about it? We break down why the movie works so well, what makes it stand out, and why it never really became part of the broader movie conversation.

We also talk about why The Madison is everything the Yellowstone spinoffs aren’t, and get into Netflix raising prices while their content keeps getting worse. Plus we break down the truth about piracy and Hollywood’s narrative around it and discuss why the industry might benefit from bringing in more voices from outside the system.
