Is That Black Enough for You?!? là phim tài liệu giàu thông tin và cảm xúc, kể lại lịch sử điện ảnh da màu Mỹ thập niên 1970.

I don’t understand how this could receive such a low score with no negative reviews written. This is a wonderful documentary and an important piece of film history.

[SPOILER ALERT: This review contains spoilers.]

this is peak cinema and i can not describe how good this movie is (i have never seen this movie at all)

É como ler uma enciclopédia freneticamente. É um filme para ser consultado, pois as referências são lançadas a cada segundo e você fica perdido, porém, cumpre o seu propósito: mostrar o quão a cultura negra é desvalorizada no cinema. Assim, não tem como o filme ser ruim pois realmente comprova com imagens, diálogos e a percepção de personalidades. Porém, peca no excesso, e pode não se tornar tão imersivo por isso.

Elvis Mitchell reminds us of just how distorted our view of American history has been throughout the 20th century... and there are no excuses for our collective ignorance. This is especially true of most Westerns, which mostly glorify European exploitation and land theft. Screenwriters attempted to correct this deliberately warping of reality in the 1960s and this reached its zenith in 1967, one of the best years in film history. Then another kind of exploitation began... and Mitchell doesn't attempt to apologize for it. We might actually appreciate what was accomplished by Black directors in the 1970s if their work is viewed ironically.
