I would say now more than ever, something you highlighted in our Notes from the Watch episode that I thought was so important is that Tony Gilroy was talking about how he was trying to write a story that feels timeless, that feels eternal, that a lot of these cycles of rise of fascism and the things that come with it and the difficulties you find inside of a rebellion or inside of a leftist front are universal.
