How ‘messages’ in movies have evolved over the decades
About this episode
Passing the Mantle is a new podcast from LAist Studios about family, curiosity and the things that change — and stay the same — across generations. In this episode, Larry and Desmond talk about how movies can help teach us about the world, and ourselves… and what makes some more effective than others in getting their messages across.
Support for this podcast is made possible by Gordon and Dona Crawford, who believe that quality journalism makes Los Angeles a better place to live.
