The Wire Season 1 Review (preview)

Tom Secker 2nd November 2018 November 19th, 2019

This is part 1 of a new subscriber-only review series where I talk about The Wire. In this episode I discuss some of the recurring themes – the war on drugs, the failed police tactics, the dirty money trail – along with the complex metaphysics of the show. I talk about some of my favourite characters and scenes, the cinematopgraphy and the underlying idea of how institutions abuse the individuals within them.
