Woman Inherits the Earth: The Sting

In this, the The Sting episode of the pod, Beth and Tess discuss a classic caper film, Robert Redford’s enduring legacy, the history of films leading up to this point, how film changed in the 1970s, and whether the solidarity alluded to in the film stands up to today’s standards.

Content warning: discussion of racism and some on-screen violence.

A note about spoilers: As much as we’d love to make this a spoiler-free podcast, the truth is, we can’t really get much of a discussion going without completely spoiling the plot of the film we’re talking about. If you don’t want to be spoiled, watch the movie before you listen to us.

Special thanks to aceinet, who recorded our intro and outro song, “Floyd Filtertron DA Shuffle.”
