The Black Guys on White Movies Show
Join me, Aaron Covington, the co-writer of CREED, to talk about white movies. What is a white movie? It's simple! Movies made for and by white people. In America that's a vast majority of the movies! I am often joined by my good friend and cinephile Bernard Harris and in our movie reviews we ask one important question of these films and that is "How white is this movie?"
The Black Guys on White Movies Show
Gladiator 2 (2024) | Ridley Scott | Denzel Washington | Ancient Rome
Denzel Washginton's new movie Gladiator 2 is a mixed bag!
We talk the history of historical epic movies and the responsibility to make accurate or not. In this case, not so much, but that's fine because it's entertainment, right?
We talk the power of an actor like Denzel Washington.
We look at what worked and didn't work and then we try to put the movie in a modern context. What messages is this movie sending, that it needed ancient rome as a setting to get across to us. Is this movie an allegory for American from 2020 to 2024? In many ways, yes! It's fascinating.
Also we have a separate youtube channel now. Link below. Video up shortly.
