Movies play a large role in modern life. We enjoy watching them; we idolize the actors and actresses who appear in them; we analyze the directors. But how well do movies tackle bigger philosophical questions? With the help of listeners and special guests, John and Ken turn a philosophical eye to the past year’s cinematic offerings, and present their 4th annual Dionysus Awards for the most philosophically-rich films of the past year.
