Harlan County, USA is such a good movie. Its fine and cool to be like, “I’m a marxist-leninist-communist” in our little rooms in front of our little screens, but watching a room full of miner’s wives cheer when another gets up and says “We have nothing to lose but our chains!” while participating in self-organized worker’s councils, it really made me reconsider what it means to be communist.
Also, Norma Rae, a movie about labor organizing starring Sally Fields is the only movie I’ve encountered that isn’t on Amazon to stream. I can stream the 4k remaster of Cannibal Holocaust, I can rent the 1988 revisionist Tank film The Beast. But not a good movie with a famous actress, that would be communism to sell that ig
