A Raisin In The Sun

A Raisin In The Sun

Reviews about black movies on Martin Luther King Day haven't been a tradition on this channel, but episode #710 is all about Sidney Poitier, Ruby Dee, Claudia McNeil and a cast that (mostly) looks just like them. In A Raisin In The Sun, they're a tumultuous family who come into a windfall of insurance money…and how to spend it is the thrust of the drama. Put it all into…a house? An education? A bar? Through all that, director Daniel Petrie's finest film gets into issues of alcoholism, financial difficulty, family squabbles, family love and racism. So come hear about the Youngers go through it all in this monologue about A Raisin In The Sun.

Even though it's Star Wars Day, someone else can talk about Luke & Leia. What I have is a  super-long episode about much-older movies: the 1932 Tarzan & the 1924 Pan. Johnny Weissmuller and Maureen O'...
