Black on Black Cinema: Ep59: Watermelon Man May 20, 2015

Show notes

This week on Black on Black Cinema, the crew discuss the 1970 comedy-drama film, Watermelon Man, directed by Melvin Van Peebles and starring Godfrey Cambridge and Estelle Parsons. The story of an unlikeable (by everyone) white man named Jeff Gerber who wakes up one day as a Black man in the 1970s. Challenging notions of white liberalism, disparity, and pushing the envelope of racial comedy in its time, Watermelon Man pulls no punches. More than simply a morality tale, Van Peebles takes a stab at the heart of what it means to be a man of color during that time.

Show notes

We got together to record a special cathartic conversation about the city we record from and what is happening here. While we normally spend our time talking about Black films and their impact and representation of us, we could not stand by and not speak on our city and the injustice and insanity that we are witnessing. With moments of levity and seriousness, we get into our feelings on our beloved Baltimore.
