Nineties TV and movies, movie stars and more

Do you know about orphan trains?

Next month’s Autonomia features a return to the 1990s with a 30th anniversary film review of a surveillance state movie and a 1995 documentary introduced by author and historian David McCullough about a 70-year private charity campaign to place orphans in rural, religious homes.

The articles are coming soon (with other articles) in September’s Autonomia. Look for in-depth analysis of Sneakers, co-starring James Earl Jones, Sidney Poitier, River Phoenix, Ben Kingsley and Dan Aykroyd in next month’s Thursday with Robert Redford. For its 20th anniversary, I’ll be judging Steven Spielberg’s police state movie, Minority Report, with Tom Cruise. A roundup of this summer’s Washington, D.C. Objectivist conference (OCON) is also in progress (exclusively for the paid subscriber).
