b"The co-writer of this film, Erica Beeney, who also wrote the Project Greenlight film THE BATTLE OF SHAKER HEIGHTS with Shia LaBeouf, joins the show to discuss CAPTIVE STATE. This is the anti alien invasion movie, subverting all your expectations to deliver something closer to THE BATTLE OF ALGIERS and ARMY OF SHADOWS, a powerful resistance movie where the heroes are, basically, terrorists. Only instead of fighting the puppet government of Vichy France in World War II, they're fighting a human puppet government installed by aliens, in near-future Chicago. Critics just flat-out missed the greatness of this film, which grows on repeat viewings. Brilliantly directed by Rupert Wyatt (RISE OF THE PLANET OF THE APES) this is a must-watch for any sci-fi fans."
