Last Plane Out (1983) is the story of an American journalist being sexy, intrepid, and in support of Anastasio Somoza’s dictatorship. Specifically: Jack Cox, who produced this self-mythologizing movie at the height of Ronald Reagan’s efforts to arm the Nicaraguan counter-revolution. Your hosts are Julian Feeld and Jon Gabrus.
