Episode 191 – Hellfighters

In this episode of the show we are discussing the 1968 Hellfighters starring John Wayne. Over the course of our conversation you will hear us wonder about John Wayne trying to find new avenues for himself in an increasingly post-western movie landscape, sticking to an all-American hero in a red onesie, and going out on location for a change to put out some fires. We also talk about the highly problematic relationship this movie has with its female characters, the idea of having a landline on a plane and whether Hellfighters can be seen as a protoplast for the disaster movie genre.

Tune in and enjoy!
