    Creeps up on you. Poitier’s performance transcends the somewhat antiquated narrative by imbuing it with complex cross-cultural implications ahead of their time.

    What's Up, Doc?

    ★★★★½

    In any era the idea of a screwball comedy by way of Looney Tunes would’ve sounded bonkers. Minor miracle how well all the gags work here. Could any pop star today pull off the comedic brilliance of Bugs, er, Babs? Lady Gaga oughta think about it.

    Like DAUGHTERS OF THE DUST, essential 90s cinema woefully ignored as such for decades. A harrowing and often kaleidoscopic immersion into the roots of white supremacy and Black consciousness.

    ★★★★★

    A definitive take on The vanity of the American west, a dark void of toxic masculinity thru Newman’s piercing stare.
