Rules for Movies & TV Discussion

  1. Any discussion of Disney properties should contain a (cw: imperialism) tag. If your post isn't tagged appropriately it will be removed.

  2. Anti-Bong Joon-ho trolling will result in an immediate ban from c/movies and submitted to the site administrators for review.

  3. On Star Trek Sunday only posts discussing how we might achieve space communism are permitted. Non-Star Trek related content will be removed and you will be temporarily banned until the following Sunday.

Here's a list of tons of leftist movies.

I might have the opportunity to screen 1 or 2 movies at a get together soon. Crowd is generally chill people but not all comrades. past features (chosen by others) have included Shaun of the Dead, Rear Window and They Live, but I'm up for anything, I just want it to not be a complete downer, at least the first one, and ideally have communist themes or undertones.

Inglorious Basterds honestly is on the list as a fallback, always a crowdpleaser, but I'd go for something higher-brow if I could think of anything

If you want something more high brow than Inglorious Basterds you could do Memories of Murder. Nothing about it makes it feel "political" but it plants a seed that can be harvested watching any other media about the police by asking "wait, why is this crap portraying the police as highly responsible professionals? Memories of Murder was so much more realistic!"
