Summary

For a while now (though mostly on Patreon ), Moira and Adrian have examined a strange canon of films and texts about. powerful people being taken down by forces of social justice. Many of these take place on college campuses or near them ( Oleanna , Deconstructing Harry , The Human Stain , After the Hunt ); others center figures of the art world ( Tàr ). There have been a few new entries in this genre, and they tell us a lot about where our culture and are politics are with regards to consequences, impunity and powerful men. The focus in this conversation is the HBO show Rooster starring Steve Carell and Outcome starring Keanu Reeves.
