BONUS Spike Lee's Major Joint 03 - Malcolm X
Manage episode 411695410 series 2892463
In this episode of our 2024 Spike Lee Joint-a-thon, we are gearing up for a serious discussion about Spike Lee's take on a prestige biopic, Malcolm X. Over the course of our conversation you will hear us talk about how Lee reinvents the biopic formula while adhering to it, how Denzel Washington embodies the titular character and how this movie had to be as long as it was to allow the filmmaker to bring his point home. We also talk about narrative shorthand, Malcolm X's journey from a criminal to a radical activist and to a reformed preacher, and much more!
Tune in and enjoy!
Hosts: Jakub Flasz & Randy Burrows
