Am I The Only One That Has A Difficult Time Watching Malcolm X?

[Devil Plisken…CMS]

Can’t front

It bothered me seeing the anguish the big homie had to go through as the end drew near

fukked Up

That movie was light bruh the book is even crazier.

Although I think anyone who's seen roots more than once is a racist.

Can't help but respect somebody knowing they gonna die and still going through with the shyt. them nikkas that killed Malc got off easy in the film should have been cut with meat cleavers.

Google what happened to Malcolm X Grand son.

Its not an easy watch but i watch it at least once a year. The writing, directing, and performances are all top notch. Spike Lee’s crowning achievement

@thedevilyouknow did you start crying toward the end?

I did not but not for any reason in particular

It did make me incredibly sad that he along with his family had to endure that leading up to such a death

 

[Booker T Garvey]

Spike Lee said that was the roughest day of filming on the commentary

It's streaming on Netflix now BTW:

Not to steal your thread. But I just imagine being a young nikka hearing/seeing this in 68' shyt was prolly super surreal.

I first saw it when I was 13 and it blew my mind. Recorded it around that time and used to watch that tape at least once a week. I know damn near every line in that movie. My girl hates watching it with me. She's like what's the point of watching this, if you're just going to say the lines yourselfSo many classic lines in that film though.

"What you gonna do? Go home to yo momma?"
*smashes bottle over dudes head*
"nikka don't you ever!....in your life!...say anything against my mother"

"This stuff ain't bad. Got any more?"
"It's the last fix I'm giving ya"
"So what you give it to me fo then?"
"Cause you couldn't hear me without it"
"....nikka get on up out my face"

"I think you been in here too long cause everybody on the outside conks"
"Why? Why does everybody on the outside conk?"
"Cause don't nobody wanna run around with some nappy head looking like some..."
"Looking like what? Like me? Like a nikkaaaa...what makes you ashamed of being black?"


"I thought you were smart but you're just another one of them cats strutting down the Avenue in your clown suit with all that mess on ya. Looking like a monkey. The white man sees you and he laughs. He laughs because he knows that you ain't white."
"Man who are you?"
"No. The question is who are you?!"
