      watching MALCOLM X for the first time in about 10 years and i am in awe of that first meeting between Malcolm and West Indian Archie. washington and lindo are just acting the hell out of that scene. it is electric!

      i had forgotten that the first part of this movie was a period crime film. one of many reminders that if spike is anything he is a lover of classic hollywood.

      a thing worth saying about this movie is that the editing is incredible. shout out to barry alexander brown, who was a frequent collaborator with spike https://twitter.com/StrategyFan/status/1300593560643760128 …

      So we watched the first half last night and are finishing the movie tonight. One thing I want to do when we finish is watch the Malcolm scenes from Michael Mann’s ALI, where Malcolm is portrayed by Mario Van Peebles. it is a very different performance, and i want to compare.

          it's a great movie, but it had a budget of $23m and I don't think it qualifies as a Hollywood movie really

          Of course it had to come out before 9/11. Could it do what it did in 2001?
