Episode notes
🎬 Paths of Glory (1957) – Random Movie # 7 on listener Rob’s all time movie list.
This week, we review Paths of Glory (1957), Stanley Kubrick’s searing anti-war drama that stands as one of the greatest indictments of military corruption and the futility of war. Kirk Douglas stars as Colonel Dax, a principled officer caught between duty and morality when he’s ordered to lead his men on a suicidal assault during World War I. As court-martial proceedings expose the arrogance and cruelty of the top brass, the film delivers a scathing critique of power, sacrifice, and injustice.
🎲 Picked from Rob’s all-time movie list—Is Paths of Glory a triumphant march of cinematic excellence or a bleak march to nowhere? Listen on to find out!
