Left of the Projector
Evan, Bill, Ward
On Left of the Projector we discuss from film from a leftist perspective. Episodes will feature guests who will offer their thoughts on films from a shared interest in class consciousness and personal experience. While everyone can take something different from a movie, LotP will provide discussion and analysis from an anti-capitalist and Marxist point of view.

Weapons (2025)
This week we talk about 2025’s Weapons, written and directed by Zach Cregger, and how it relates to alienation, the failure of capitalist systems to build and maintain true community, and how teachers in the US don’t get nearly enough credit or appreciation for what they do. No guest this week, just your boys from the Big Lebowski talking movies through the lens of Marx. As always, spoilers ahead.Left of the Projector Linkshttps://boxd.it/5T9O1https://www.instagram.com/leftoftheprojectorpod/https://leftoftheprojectorpod.threadless.com/https://www.instagram.com/the_red_gobbo/https://www.instagram.com/millennialmarxist1/https://leftoftheprojector.com
