"Good news: I finally saw "Selma"."


  

          

Bad news: I saw it this morning at work (while still working, no laying down on the job) early in the AM while I was alone.

Now I'm all shook and riled up.

I'll never be so glad to leave and go home for the day....

      What's the big picture? DTRT is an American cinematic masterpiece
May 07th 2015

      Do the Right Thing is the better film.
May 07th 2015

      DTRT never resonated with me

           Bamboozled is a great work. It might not be good, but it's great
May 07th 2015
39
                Bamboozled means well, but it's hampered by melodrama
May 07th 2015

                bamboozled feels sloppy and rushed

      Do the Right Thing is studied in film school

Selma certainly starts out conventional, but a third of the way in
May 07th 2015

May 08th 2015

DTRT was like nothing I've seen before. Malcolm X is a conventional
May 07th 2015

Malcolm X does what it's supposed to do and does it well....
May 07th 2015
23
i don't think Malcolm X gets enough storytelling credit
May 07th 2015

I still need to see it
May 07th 2015
35
Take out the lore of MLK and the movie is pretty basic imo
May 07th 2015

Malcolm X is better because of Spike and Denzel
May 07th 2015

"Malcolm X" covers Malcolm's entire adult life.
