Philosophy In Film - 047 - The Truman Show
Philosophy In Film - A podcast by Chris McTavish, Alain Beauclair and Craig Nickel
In this landmark episode, we examine Peter Weir's "The Truman Show", finally delving into the topic of utilitarianism, while welcoming our first ever "in-studio" guest. We discuss the weekly beverage pairing and power through Producer's Notes (9:54), before a quick Synopsis leads us into Philosopher's Corner (30:50) and a round table discussion of the philosophical aspects of the movie. Its worth noting that Alain's treatment of utilitarianism is suspect at best. Featured Beer: Jerkface 9000, by Parallel 49 Brewing Company (Vancouver, BC)
