Reel World: Rewind #036 – Southland Tales

April 18, 2019Joshua Crabb Comedy, Drama, Mystery, podcast, RWRewind0

On this episode of Reel World: Rewind…

Once again, Blake strikes with a challenging and heady movie. Richard Kelly’s widely criticized second feature film Southland Tales suffered similar marketing obstacles to his first feature film, the classic film Donnie Darko. Consequentially, his second film has largely been forgotten. Blake Collier and Josh Crabb untangle this serpentine narrative to discuss Kelly’s righteous anger, his sharp satirical takedown of LA and popular culture, and how the apocalypse is a bi-partisan initiative.

About Reel World Theology

In today’s world, the medium of film is reaching more and more people than ever before. With American domestic box office sales of over $10 billion in 2012, cinema has a direct line into our culture, our homes, and even our beliefs.
