Ragtime

We end Mike White May with yet another Forman period piece, this time all about a time in America when racial tensions were at an all-time high: Ragtime. The Projection Booth's Mike White and Rankin on Bass's Richard Hatem stop by to gush profusely about a film that gets better with age and rewatches. Starring an ensemble cast, the story focuses on a family who is thrust into the spotlight after a baby is left in their garden during the turn of the 20th century. It then escalates into racial violence, musings on responsibility in a young America, and what it means to be an American.For more Kulturecast episodes and podcasts guaranteed to be your new favorite audio obsession, check out Weirding Way Media at weirdingwaymedia.com.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-kulturecast--2883470/support.
