i believe it’s crucial to know black cinema as a black individual working in the film world. can’t wait to research and document my thoughts on paper (reviews). and maybe i can bring something to the screen one day representing my culture…

films on this list are sorted in chronological order (kinda). must have a black lead or be written/directed by a black person. feel free to comment a recommendation. roots will not be watched.
