BlacKkKlansman (2018)
Get WOKE
Based mostly on the powerful true story of Colorado Detective Ron Stallworth (for fact vs artistic license incidents read article on Slate.
This movie should be seen by all non-haters for two reasons 1) know your history 2) it is powerful & liberating. For all those who think that America has always been nice and equal they should be "woke" and see this movie. For more insight into America's African American & Japanese civi rights events that contain actual interviews from PBS/Blackside's "Eye On The Prize" & listen to NPR podcasts "Buried Truths" & American Public Media's Internment "Order 9066"
Operavox (1995)
Operavox is incredible!
All the operas are condensed versions redone in the English language. "The Magic Flute", "Das Rheingold" and "Turandot" are done in traditional animation style. "Carmen" has a morphed look to it that seems to have first filmed live actors and then an animation was layered over the actors to give it a very different look. My favorites are "The Barber of Seville" and "Rigoletto" that are done with puppets and sets that are visually incredible! WARNING: True to the plots in the operas there are adult themes that show murder and sex and is not appropriate for young children. This DVD is now out of print but copies are available for rent from companies like Netflix or for for purchase at a very expensive price. Worth watching!
