Episode description

The Crucible, Arthur Miller's condemnation of McCarthyism through use of the Salem witch trials, is examined in this episode of For Better or Worse. Specifically, Shana and Mike look at the 1996 film adaptation, written by Miller himself. Also, in less than five minutes Mike gets The Look, regains favor, and falls out of it again. (For the record, Mike knows that Mel Gibson played William Wallace, not a character called Braveheart.) Please visit our Patreon page at http://www.patreon.com/forbetterorworse.
