The sound quality will finally improve from next week onwards as
the Reversoscope Trilogy, recorded in one marathon session, comes
to an end. We tackle the highly problematic Oscar-winning short THE
HOUSE I LIVE IN (1945) and wonder what could possibly be so
"communist" about it as one Shocking Twist follows another. Then
we're learning a LOT about cigarettes in LUCKY STRIKE SALESMAN'S
MOVIE 48-A (1948) and are blown away by a transcendentally
beautiful Sinatra performance of "Stardust", jarringly embedded in
its entirety amongst a tobacco sales pitch. Rabia wraps things up
with a reflection on the discussions about racism we've had
throughout these episodes.
