Description
Steven Spielberg's War of the Worlds is one of his most overlooked films in recent years, but also remains one of his most haunting and political. Join us for One Horrifying Moment as I discuss how Rachel's lullaby not only tells a beautifully haunting story of what a father would do to protect their children, but also a larger story of the dark place America was at around this time.
