Malcolm X

July 20, 2019 2:00pm
Directed by Spike Lee | 1991
With Denzel Washington, Angela Bassett, Delroy Lindo
Spike Lee’s powerful adaptation of the iconic activist and orator’s 1965 autobiography charts its subject’s conversion from street hustler to fiery street-corner speaker to nationally recognized figure—and through his break with the Black Muslims and journey to Mecca, which led to profound changes in his perception of racism and Islam. In one of the great screen performances of the 1990s, Denzel Washington fully inhabits Malcolm X with conviction, force, and dignity.
