Philosophy In Film - 048 - Dirty Dancing

For the final episode of season 2, we discuss the 1987 American romantic drama dance film, "Dirty Dancing", and specifically how the film treats masculinity and the female gaze.  As always, we share a weekly beverage pairing, and plod through some of the Producer's Notes (9:19), before a quick Synopsis leads us into Philosopher's Corner (37:49) and the round table discussion of the philosophical aspects of the movie.

Om Podcasten

Do you like movies and philosophy? If so then "Philosophy In Film" is the podcast for you. We are three almost cool dudes who like talking about the philosophical dimensions of film. Two of us have PhDs in philosophy, while our show producer helps to keep us grounded with his wry humor and "man behind the glass" insights. Each episode draws upon a well-known movie in order to help animate and illuminate a basic philosophical theme or question. We also like to enjoy a feature "episode beer" to help deepen our philosophical thoughts. Come join our conversation at "Philosophy in Film."
