@Priyajsridhar
They say that reading fiction can make us more empathetic. What stories convinced me that humanity exists and is capable of being better?

One of my favorites on this theme is "Enemy Mine" (novella) by Barry Longyear. It won the Nebula & the Hugo, and was made into a fabulous film with Louis Gossett Jr. as the alien.

Good for him I guess, but does this really need a remake?

In honor of the passing of Lou Gossett Jr (RIP), gonna watch some Enemy Mine on #VHS. This is another one that my brothers and I watched ad infinitum on cable when we were kids. Let's see how it holds up, shall we?

Listening to the Movie Oubliette podcast episode on Enemy Mine, it occurs to me that the Dracs could be read as an analogue for Jews, and Davidge and the expansionist humans as an analogue for anti-Semites. I remember really loving this movie as a youngster, and I still think it was very progressive for 1980s Hollywood. But rewatching it as an adult, I have to admit it hasn't aged well.

@TheSpaceshipper - I loved it. Some considered it as weak and a bad example of "Nazi vs Jew", but for me it was impressive. #Enemymine

I'm just rewatching Enemy Mine (1985). Like many pre-digital sci-fi films, its fantastic practical FX include a space battle and a few giants creatures for the protagonists to fend off. But what makes this film great is the concept, taken from a novella by Barry B. Longyear, and the performances by the two leads. Dennis Quaid as the rough-as-guts human fighter pilot Davidge, and Louis Gosset Jr. as the non-binary Drac he nicknames "Jerry".
