In the 1980s, there were only 63 Black films by, for, or about Black Americans. But in the 1990s, that number quadrupled, with 220 Black films making their way to cinema screens nationwide. What sparked this “Black New Wave?” Who blazed this path for contemporaries like Ava DuVernay, Kasi Lemmons and Jordan Peele? And how did these films transform American culture as a whole?

The Player (1992 - movie)
Giaco’s pick for success is the Robert Altman film from the early nineties that is widely known for its, at the time, record length opening shot.
The story is very Hollywood. It explores a thriller against the shallow backdrop of the sausage making of big studio films.
Tim Robbins stars as a soulless producer and studio exec. who rarely drinks a drop and who’s passions are all self-serving.
You should continue on through the rest of Robert Altman’s work, Popeye, M.A.S.H., Nashville- all works of a master.
To purchase The Player (we recommend Criterion) you can go to Amazon or iTunes. You can stream it on FilmStruck.
______________________
NEXT WEEK: We conclude Success w/ John’s pick - the novel “The Black Company” from Glen Cook.
