Description

Two infamous, overtly racist and hugely successful films. Join Stephen and Albert as they try to navigate the thorny conversation around these films, unpicking their influence; how they reflect their time periods; why they are pernicious; the dangers of a canonical approach to film and the key question: should you watch actually watch these films?


Also, Stephen lists 13 essential films by 13 different Black filmmakers, films to watch instead.
