47: Replay: Inception - Derick McDuff on Parenting and Child Separation in the Movies

The Fair Parenting Podcast

This is an episode from the Replay series in which we look back at past episodes for those new to the podcast.
Today we look back at my discussion with Derick McDuff about parenting and child separation in the movies, which much of the talk about Christopher Nolan’s film Inception. We also cover other movies and music. This originally aired as episode 3, way back on 2nd October 2022. If you like today's episode you may also like episode 5 which covered the movie Interstellar (link below).
In this episode we talk movies with Derick McDuff from the Underrated podcast. We discuss Inception as well as E.T., A.I., Minority Report and more.
You may be wondering why we are talking movies on a parenting podcast. In some episodes I want to discuss parenting and parental alienation themes in movies, books and music.
Art is one of the most beautiful and powerful things in life and revisiting art can help us get through the dark times of abuse and parental alienation.
Over 2 episodes we discuss 2 Christopher Nolan films. In this episode we talk @Inception and the next episode will cover @Interstellar.
This episode we also discuss parenting themes in Steven Spielberg’s movies E.T., A.I. and @TomCruise’s role in Minority Report. Finally we touch on @HansZimmer’s music and Groundhog Day. It’s a packed episode!
I had a lot of fun discussing these movies and it was great to get Derick’s insights.
There are many parental themes in these movies. More than you may think!
One warning: if you haven’t seen the movies mentioned, this episode may contain spoilers!
