In Episode 27 of Dystopian Fiction Has Been Moved to Current Affairs, Masha and Clare discuss the 1976 film Logan's Run, and its themes of aging, societal control, hedonism, AI, and the nature of freedom. We draw contrasts with other depictions of the allegory of Plato's cave, the apparent rejection of 1960s culture in favour of more conservative values, and the vision of a response to ecological crisis and resource scarcity. We also chat about the futuristic aesthetic, the bizarre costuming, and the synth soundtrack, not to mention the many cats.
In this episode, Clare references this fascinating article by Diver, Pulverenti, and Roberts (2023) in the Liverpool Law Review. She also recommends the novel The Lost Cause by Cory Doctorow.
