Description
Hello, critical thinkers.
In this episode of "Desert of the Reel," we look at 2005's Lord of War. Jason wanted to watch this one and talk about the ethics and philosophy behind it. This Nicholas Cage movie has a gun runner single handedly distribute the guns for war and rebellion throughout the world in the 80s and 90s.
We talk about the philosophical questions the movie proposes to us. We ask if the world is doomed. Jason argues that all the world needs are people who know their strengths and are willing to use them to change things.
