The Confederate States of America
I just whatched an interesting movie called The Confederate States of America, which is a satirical look throught theoretical television programming of post Civil war Ameica, had the South won the Civil War. You can rent it at Block Buster. It uses some real historical footage, and is set as a scandalous historical documentary interspersed with commercials with real products that were on the market in recent Americal history like “Darky Toothpaste”. The scary reality is that this country is not that far from this satirical look at what if. In Many of the commercials southern music is used featuring the banjo, and other bluegrass intrumentation. It is shocking, brilliant, and audacious. Check it out
