I have a few movies I wanna watch that are vaguely lefty. BUT, western movies rarely have good things to say or portray about leftist societies. A few that come to mind to watch are Goodbye Lenin, The Trotsky and Reds. Idk if these are critical of leftists or not but why not watch them and review them at a later point. I watched Red Dawn recently and man I had a lot to say about it. I guess part of what I’m saying is, is this community dying or not, bc if not I’d be willing to do weekly or biweekly movie reviews(biweekly as in, twice a week, not to be confused with the word biweekly meaning once every two weeks,English is confusing lol) if this community is dead, then I guess I’ll find out one way or another🤣 BTW: not to advertise or anything cringe but I like using the JustWatch app for keeping track of my watchlist and seeing where to watch these for free depending on which app or service has it or not, worst case scenario a friend TOTALLY DOESN’T PIRATE IT for me and I “find out a way to watch it quick”

    Anything by Ken Loach. ‘I’m Sorry We Missed You’, about zero-hours subcontracted labour in the UK and ‘I, Daniel Blake’, about the collapse of British social welfare especially.

    He’s particularly tuned in to UK socialist movements and his work well worth watching

      I was searching for these movies and discovered that he also made The Wind that Shakes the Barley, a movie about the Irish Anti-Imperialists in the 20s. It was a great movie and one I intend to watch again, I look forward to seeing his other works
