Is Mad Max: Fury Road More Relevant than Ever?

In this, the Mad Max: Fury Road episode of the pod, Beth and Tess discuss the Mad Max franchise, primarily Fury Road, whether it has anything pertinent to say about our current reality, whether one can ever make an anti-war film or even an anti-violence film, what Nux has to tell us about masculinity, and what exactly comprises masculine camp.

Content warning: some mild language and discussion of slavery and violence, particularly violence against women.

A note about spoilers: As much as we’d love to make this a spoiler-free podcast, the truth is, we can’t really get much of a discussion going without completely spoiling the plot of the film we’re talking about. If you don’t want to be spoiled, watch the movie before you listen to us.

Special thanks to aceinet, who recorded our intro and outro song, “Floyd Filtertron DA Shuffle.”
