Question: Respond to the film/ what choices did the director make?
Date Assignment is due:10/16/19
Response: As I started to watch the movie, I had noticed that the director starts the movie off with a voice that is supposed to be Malcolm and he is accusing the white man against what they have done. As he says this, the background is an American flag getting burnt and then continuously switches into a clip of a black man being beat by white police officers. As the movie starts, it shows a man who is getting his shoe shined by a little black boy, who also carriers his groceries as they transition to the barber shop where they spot Malcolm. When I had saw the actor for Malcolm, Denzel Washington, I was a bit surprised because I thought that Malcolm was going to be younger based on the book we read. Then, the movie soon turns into a dance with Malcolm and his friend in their nice suits and haircuts. One thing I didn’t like how the director had directed the movie was when there was a long period of time which was just Malcolm dancing and flirting with girls. Near the end of the period, we also got to see a seen where Malcolm smashes a glass bottle on a mans head and proceeds to put on his hat and join the gentlemen who had bought him a drink. Overall, this is what I think about the director, and how they directed the movie.
