On the fifth episode of Shite & Sound, Finn and Uther watch ‘The Life and Death of Colonel Blimp’ (1942), a film that treats warfare as a competition to see who can be the most British, and ‘Universal Soldier: Day of Reckoning’ (2012), a film that constantly reminds you that humans are indeed made of meat. What makes an anti-war film? Lists of English names. What is the line between an Exploitation film and an exploitative film? Uther gets a bit lost while Finn is a bit too happy talking about crazy violence.
