Micheaux Mission — Film Reviews
Micheaux Mission

Vincent Williams and Len Webb have started an amazing journey to watch and review every African-American film released in theaters. Their passion project, the Micheaux Mission, honors Oscar Micheaux, a trailblazing Black filmmaker. Their enthusiasm and dedication are truly inspiring as they seek the perfect wine to pair with Pam Grier’s Coffy, find five movies since 1985 that don’t feature Samuel L. Jackson, and connect with other film fans who share Len’s view on The Last Dragon. Their commitment to celebrating and examining African-American cinema is both commendable and uplifting. Welcome to the Mission!

The First Time I Heard KENNY LOGGINS Jun 19, 2019

Show notes

If you hear the name Kenny Loggins and automatically think of "Footloose", you may be surprised by what else in his catalog of music which spans over 45 years. Grammy-Award winning producer Alvin Love III (CeCe Winans, Mary Mary, The New Respects) and I talk about the first time we heard Kenny Loggins and why there is a particular and very soulful era of his career that made us fall in love with his music. We also talk about what inspires Alvin musically and what it was like to produce an award winning album for his mother, gospel music legend CeCe Winans.

Carmen: A Hip Hopera (2001) May 29, 2019

Show notes

Len gets Vince's thoughts on soulful remakes that are superior to the originals (so some say)and the hip hop opera CARMEN starring Mekhi Phifer and Beyonce Knowles in her acting debut gets more honest scrutiny than it got in 2001.

Steel (1997) May 22, 2019

Show notes

Vince and Len stand corrected about Who's The Man the movie, the soundtrack and the stars. But there's nothing wrong with their take on star Shaquille O'Neal, director Kenneth Johnson and the movie STEEL (1997).

Who's The Man? (1993) May 14, 2019

Show notes

90s hip-hop is on full display as the era's biggest stars earn their SAG cards in the cameo filled Yp! MTV Rap's sanctioned whodunit by 1st-time director Ted Demme. Unfortunately there's the problem of stars Ed Lover and Doctor Dre to contend with.

Rappin' (1985) May 08, 2019

Show notes

Mario Van Peeples is a very good looking man. Kadeem Hardison has fun on set. That’s the extent of the good stuff to be said about 1985’s RAPPIN’. We wish we were lying.
