Vive la Mission!
The Micheaux Mission is not just a "black movie podcast." It is even more than a celebration of black cinema. When Vince and Len spend time breaking down the cinematic texture of a film, they bring to light those who truly were artists of their time like Melvin Van Peebles. When a letter from the Missionaries creates wells of laughter, they come not at the expense of another, but from a place of joy recalling a film we've long since forgotten. And when I hit "stop" on my podcast player and feel more informed after seeing such actors as Nichelle Nichols, Sidney Poitier, Thandie Newton and John Boyega, I realize this is not just a podcast. The Micheaux Mission truly represents an attempt to solidify, once and for all, the Black Diaspora's full effect on Hollywood cinema in all of its' forms. This show is scholastic, goofy, timely and above all else, necessary if you understand identity in America today. Vive la Mission!Read full review »
