The Rocketeer
In this week's episode, Jamelle and John watch Disney's "The Rocketeer," a throwback action-adventure film starring Billy Campbell, Alan Arkin, Jennifer Connelly, Paul Sorvino and Timothy Dalton. They discuss the 1930s revival of the late 80s and early 90s, the real-life conspiracies that might have inspired the plot of "The Rocketeer," and the political power of nostalgia for Americans on the left and the right.
