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 World, The Flesh and The Devil (1959) Apr 03, 2019

Show notes

A sci-fi movie from the 50s that stars a black man and a white woman, mixed in a triangle of passion with a white man and they’re possibly the last people on the Earth - sounds like a job for Harry Belafonte! Fans of heated Vince vs Len debates will love this one.

SPOCK ADJACENT 17 - Star Trek Discovery S2E10-11 Apr 03, 2019

Show notes

Star Trek Discovery serves up a doozy of story finale for THE RED ANGEL SAGA that includes Section 31 intrigue, Spock adjaceyting all over the place, Georgiou high kicking, Tilly not clicking, Culper cleans up, Ash guttings, Burnham choking and a time traveling visitor from 'The Wire'. Good stuff!

The Color Purple (1985) w Denise James Mar 27, 2019

Show notes

Vince and Len are stunned - no - flabbergasted by their guest, Philly news lady Denise James' disrespect for THE COLOR PURPLE (1985) or shall we say, her lack of regard for ONE WEAK LINK among the stellar cast of Whoopi Goldberg, Oprah Winfrey, Danny Glover et al.

Whats Love Got To Do With It? (1993) Mar 20, 2019

Show notes

Vince and Len are mixed on a Prince biopic but all in for everything about What's Love Got To Do With It?, the Tina (and Ike) Turner biography starring Angela Bassett, Laurence Fishburne and apparently Phyllis Stickney's back.

SPOCK ADJACENT 16 - Star Trek Discovery S2E9 'Project Daedelus' Mar 20, 2019

Show notes

Star Trek uncorks another ‘bottle episode’ of exquisite taste as we learn more about Section 31 and crewman Airiam and the Spock/Burnham upbringing. But a bit of bad news from the media bums out one of the Micheaux Men very much.

Black Girl (1972) Mar 13, 2019

Show notes

Ossie Davis directs J.E. Franklin's Off-Broadway critically acclaimed family drama, touching on multiple generations of black womanhood under one roof. A good story let down by poor direction.
