In conclusion, Bell Hooks suggests that the only way we can change the world is when we all learn to love men in all of their complexity, but especially men learning to love ourselves. This episode, I take a look at what I consider to be the perfect film that delivers this message, When a Man Loves a Woman. I use the structure and story in that film as a template and apply it to another well-known text, Die Hard, to prove once and for all that you can make really great movies (of all genres) about whole, complex men.Â
Thank you to all of my guests this season, and to my beloved creative producer, Eric Wolfe. You pointed out that I might have more to say about Die Hard. As it turns out, you were right. So, this one’s for you.
