Join us for a discussion of the 1971 Don Siegel police action film Dirty Harry, its left and liberal reception at the time, and its reverberations throughout the rest of Clint Eastwood's career. Sorry we mostly forgot to be funny on this one. ACAB, by the way.

Topics include: police brutality, fascist aesthetics, cop movies and copaganda, the meaning(s) of San Francisco as a setting, how we think Eastwood and Siegel feel about the cops, the Hunters Point social uprising of 1966, the Zodiac killer, mineral oil, and a conversation about the Scorpio Killer's driving directions.
