SUMMARY:Black Girl; Happy Birthday to a Beautiful Woman
DESCRIPTION:Shown in conjunction with Mickalene Thomas: Waiting on a Prime-time Star\, Black Girl explores the complex dynamics and devastating legacy of colonialism.  It centers on a young Senegalese woman who moves from Dakar to France to work for a rich white couple. Directed by father of African cinema Ousmane Sembène\, Black Girl is the first African film to receive international acclaim. Martin Scorsese called it “an astonishing movie—so ferocious\, so haunting\, and so unlike anything we’d ever seen.”    \n1966; 1 h 5 min; French with English subtitles \n\nHappy Birthday to a Beautiful Woman (2012) is artist Mickalene Thomas’ directorial debut film about her mother and artistic muse\, Sandra Bush. Interspersed with excerpts from a conversation between the two are archival film clips\, snapshots\, and scenes of her mother–a former fashion model–in her hospital bed as she suffers the effects of the kidney disease. \n2012; 23 min

SUMMARY:Killer of Sheep
DESCRIPTION:Shown in conjunction with Mickalene Thomas: Waiting on a Prime-time Star\, Killer of Sheep examines the black Los Angeles ghetto of Watts in the mid-1970s through the eyes of Stan\, a sensitive dreamer increasingly detached from the psychic toll of working at a slaughterhouse. \nDirected by Charles Burnett\, the film was shot on 16mm black-and-white film on a budget of less than $10\,000. Finished in 1977\, it was never shown theatrically or made available on video due to issues of music rights (the soundtrack features songs by Etta James\, Dinah Washington\, Gershwin\, Rachmaninov\, Paul Robeson\, and Earth\, Wind & Fire). Thirty years later\, the film was restored by UCLA and remastered from 16 to 35mm.   \nThe National Society of Film Critics has selected Killer of Sheep as one of the “100 Essential Films” of all time. \n1977; 1 hr 23 min
