A bold look at 70's blaxploitation films.

Directed by Isaac Julien

200258 min6.0 / 10

An energetic documentary celebration of 1970s blaxploitation cinema that blends archival clips, star interviews, and critical analysis to explore a culturally significant but often dismissed film movement.

With archive film clips and interviews, this brief look at a frequently overlooked historical period of filmmaking acts as an introduction rather than a complete record. It features interviews with some of the genre's biggest stars, like Fred Williamson, Pam Grier, and Richard Roundtree. Director Melvin Van Peebles discusses the historical importance of his landmark film Sweet Sweetback's Baadasssss Song. For a contemporary perspective, the excitable Quentin Tarantino offers his spirited commentary and author/critic bell hooks provides some scholarly social analysis.
