In this episode, we look at the anti-capitalist afrosurrealist film I Love Boosters (Boots Riley), and the highly-anticipated anti-something The Devil Wears Prada 2 (David Frankel). We explore the common threads (sorry!) of fashion versus capitalism, the depictions of the right kind of billionaire, and the importance of soul sucking demons. Of course, we talk Marxist theory as it applies to fashion production (so, Karl by Karl Marx?) and which film embodies the world we’d like to live in.
