Johnny Got His Gun - The Empathetic Indictment Of War:
This week's video essay discusses Dalton Trumbo's adaptation of his own classic novel in detail, examining the writer's own political stance and how it informed both his novel and film. A furious film critical of callous militant leaders, and a compassionate display of humanity towards suffering, Johnny Got His Gun is an emotionally bleak film, but a necessary one.
