To a modern Australian audience, Sinatra's shockingly violent noir film SUDDENLY (1954) now seems like an obvious cautionary tale: Guns are bad for society, they drive you mad with power, and kids should be kept away from them. But 1950s American audiences took home the exact opposite message: that guns keep your home safe, everyone should own them and kids should get used to them as early in life as possible. How can this be the same movie?
This week, we're looking at gun culture in the US and Australia, the history of political assassinations and mass shootings, and asking the question: when life comes at you fast, and a bad man has a gun, can you keep up?
