Popcorn Culture - Review: Brave New World (+ Astro's International Series On Demand)

Based on the classic novel of the same name by Aldous Huxley, Brave New World imagines a society in which monogamy, family, money, and history are strictly prohibited in an attempt to maintain peace. What could possibly go wrong? In this episode, we discuss the faithfulness of this adaptation, as well as its not-so-ideal utopia. We also explore other offerings on Astro's International Series On-Demand catalogue.

Produced by: Arvindh Yuvaraj, Lee Chwi Lynn, Sharmilla Ganesan
