Die Hard

Kristie Smith talks about Die Hard (dir. John McTiernan, 1988) and presents evidence for its status as a ‘Christmas film’. Although it’s largely a light episode, there is some swearing, plot detail, and the discussion at times edges into topics that some listeners may find upsetting, such as police brutality and 9/11.
