Reviewing Tombstone – with Andrew Bernstein
In this episode of The Rational Egoist, Michael Liebowitz is joined by Objectivist philosopher and novelist Andrew Bernstein to review the iconic Western film Tombstone. They explore the movie’s themes of justice, courage, moral clarity, and individualism, examining how the characters reflect—or contradict—philosophical ideals. With Bernstein’s passion for heroism and rational values, this episode offers a fresh perspective on a modern classic and its deeper significance. Whether you're a fan of the film or curious about its philosophical undertones, this is a conversation not to miss.
Michael Leibowitz, host of The Rational Egoist podcast, is a philosopher and political activist who draws inspiration from Ayn Rand’s philosophy, advocating for reason, rational self-interest, and individualism. His journey from a 25-year prison sentence to a prominent voice in the libertarian and Objectivist communities highlights the transformative impact of embracing these principles. Leibowitz actively participates in political debates and produces content aimed at promoting individual rights and freedoms. He is the co-author of “Down the Rabbit Hole: How the Culture of Correction Encourages Crime” and “View from a Cage: From Convict to Crusader for Liberty,” which explore societal issues and his personal evolution through Rand’s teachings.
