shoulder I went to shock when I saw all
7:05
that damn blood
7:06
I mean I ain’t never been shot before so
7:08
I thought I was gonna die Albert and
7:10
Alan Hughes painted The Bleak portrait
7:13
of the life of a South Central teen
7:15
nicknamed Kane although he’s repeatedly
7:18
encouraged to escape a vicious cycle he
7:21
constantly finds himself falling deeper
7:23
into the life his loved ones never
7:25
wanted him to have some crime movies
7:28
make the dark path look glamorous or
7:30
exciting however menace to society never
7:34
shies away from the brutal realities of
7:37
that world I’ve seen lots of people
7:39
killed before but I ain’t never done it
7:41
myself
7:42
I mean I never had a reason to
7:44
but when they killed my cousin I knew I
7:47
was gonna kill them the candid depiction
7:49
of Street crime and violence were met
7:52
with controversy but the co-directors
7:54
truly wanted to convey how hard it is
7:57
for young people to escape the most
7:59
Sinister trappings of their environments
8:02
while it may drive some audiences out of
8:04
their comfort zone it’s unquestionably a
8:07
gripping and important black drama you
8:10
need to be glad that you graduated from
8:12
high school and that you’re alive at 18
8:14
and you need to do something with

8:38
praised for its emotional and
8:40
high-stakes storytelling watching Bobby
8:43
Johnson fight to save his child child
8:45
from losing everything is incredibly
8:48
compelling I told a man in prison
8:51
that I would save my son’s life even if
8:55
it took my life
8:59
I’m willing to die here today Ray and
9:01
throughout this fictional tale there’s
9:03
plenty of reminders of real life issues
9:06

9:09
dark narrative there’s a strong
9:11
undercurrent of optimism and hope

underneath everything the positive

proved that the film struck a chord with
9:20
many South Central ultimately leaves
9:23
viewers with the sense that it’s never
9:25
too late for Redemption the court will
9:28
give you back to me

9:53
music icon Tina Turner and her turbulent
9:56
marriage to producer Ike Turner if you
9:59
watch just a minute of it you’ll
10:01
understand exactly why basic completely
10:04
transforms to portray the iconic
10:07
singer’s greatest highs and deepest lows
10:09
while some of the film’s events were
10:12
made up for the movie Bassett and her
10:14
co-stars still give towering
10:16
performances that feel realistic the
10:19
tension between her and Lawrence
10:21
Fishburne is palpable during every one
10:24
of the film’s tense confrontations
10:27
I’m asking nicely and I’m saying no
10:29
tonight
10:34
although there’s plenty of Sensational
10:37
scenes and Sparks the movie Never loses
10:40
sight of its star this memorable biopic
10:43
is a sobering and stunning tribute to
10:46
the queen of rock and roll I just
10:48
believe that anything is possible you
10:51
know anything
10:53
and it took me a long time to get back

out of my system and now that I’ve done
10:57

11:02
years is long enough you’ve been sitting

400 years I think it’s time to stand up
11:08
Oscar winner Denzel Washington portrays
11:11
how the historic icon went from a life
11:14
of crime to becoming the face and voice
11:16
of a black movement like the man himself
11:19
Lee’s Malcolm X shocked audiences with
11:23
its scope and intensity it intimately
11:26
examined the complexities and internal
11:29
conflicts within the iconic divisive
11:31
ideology at the same time it championed
11:34
the importance of black empowerment and
11:37
civil rights there can be no black white
11:39
Unity until there’s first some black
11:41
Unity where you cannot think of uniting
11:43
with others until we have first learned
11:45
to unite amongst ourselves and
11:47
everything is tied together by an
11:49
outstanding performance from Denzel
11:51
Washington in the title role Lee’s
11:54
period peace never lets viewers forget
11:56
that there’s still much work to be done
11:58

12:01
magnum opus Malcolm X’s call for pride
