Best labor movies (Part 2)

Elise and Chris talk with Kathleen M. Newman and Tom Zaniello about one of those lists of “10 best labor films”; which films make the cut, which don’t, and why. Movies discussed include 9 to 5, Support The Girls, Modern Times, Newsies, and The Pajama Game.

A regular with us here on Labor Goes to the Movies, Kathy’s a professor of English, literary and cultural studies at Carnegie Mellon University, where she teaches and writes about labor, class, film, and media. Tom Zaniello has written a number of books on labor films, including Working Stiffs, Union Maids, Reds, and Riffraff: An Expanded Guide to Films about Labor.

Produced by Chris Garlock
