In this exciting episode, Alex and Chris dive deep into the art of storytelling through multiple mediums.
The boys explore the subtle complexities of storytelling in classic films, novels, and comics.
The stimulating discussion starts with the iconic 1957 film 12 Angry Men. It examines the intense jury deliberations and how the characters' actions convey deeper themes, such as racial prejudices affecting judgments. The boys contrast these observations with the written script to illustrate the power of visual storytelling in films.
Next, they shift gears to the fantastical world of Ray Bradbury's "Something Wicked This Way Comes." Alex and Chris discuss how this novel sets an atmospheric tone that pulls readers into its unsettling carnival setting. Alex shares a personal reflection on how Bradbury’s work inspired me to pursue writing.
Last, they delve into Superman's moral landscape in Action Comics' number 775 tale, "What's Funny About Truth Justice and the American Way."
It's a lively debate about the ethical choices posed to Superman as Alex and Chris explore his resistance to tyranny and the abuse of power.
