Welcome to a special crossover podcast discussion on Michael Mann's first major feature film Thief (1981). While Michael Mann is best known for films like HEAT and Last of the Mohicans, Thief is by far his most political film. The film explores themes of labor, exploitation, class and the inner lives of criminals and convicts. We discuss the Marxist and Freudian undertones in this great masterpiece of cinema.

This conversation is hosted by Mtume Gant, filmmaker, professor and host of Within Our Gates podcast and Daniel Tutt, philosopher and host of the Emancipations podcast.
