Welcome to another fascinating episode of Citizen Frame. This time, we revise our plans to dive into a passionate discussion on John Carpenter's 1988 cult classic, 'They Live'. Despite initial technical glitches, we delight ourselves with an exciting exploration of this unforgettable film.
We lay bare Carpenter’s fondness for 1950s' B-movies and pop culture and how it delivers a sharp critique of our society. We grapple with the film’s central objectives and Carpenter's knack to keep things simple yet stylish. In this spellbinding discussion, some darker themes are also addressed, like the prevalence of subliminal messaging that implores us to obey and not question.
While 'They Live' is often overlooked by some Carpenter fanatics, in this episode, the film finds its rightful place as one of our favorites. The narrative is equally amusing and critical; the settings and characters are unforgettable, with the skinless, ghoulish aliens standing out for their distinct design and the underlying themes of conformism and brainwashing they reflect.
Join us for an enlightening discussion, and cultivate a fresh perspective for the hilarious yet poignant critique of consumer culture that makes ‘They Live’ an enduring classic. Because, as any fan of this film knows - "we're all out of bubble gum."
Enjoy!
