S03E02 - Escape From New York (1981)
Directed by John Carpenter, this is considered to be a classic but, whoa there, Charlie and Amanda might have other ideas.
Starring Kurt Russell, Donald Pleasance, Lee Van Cleef, Ernest Borgnine, Issac Hayes, Adrienne Barbeau and Harry Dean Stanton, this paints a dystopian vision of the future (which is actually our past).
We marvel at the lack of CGI, considering this was post-Star Wars, wonder where the eye patch came from and also if it has any parallels with what's going on today.
Oh, and we get allegory and metaphor mixed up (but definitely know the meaning of irony).
Enjoy!
