Justin Simien on 'Symbiopsychotaxiplasm: Take One'
Manage episode 434321801 series 3009401
When writer/director Justin Simien (Dear White People, Haunted Mansion) first saw William Greaves' groundbreaking 1968 film, Symbiopsychotaxiplasm: Take One. He was mad. Not about the film's avant-garde style (part fiction, part documentary, part performance art) but about the fact that he hadn't seen it sooner -- it might've saved him a lot of trouble as he found his way in a challenging, second-guessing industry. Now Justin is introducing more people to the contributions to cinema made by Black creatives like Greaves, through his series Hollywood Black, now streaming from MGM+.
Then Jordan has one quick thing about Brandy and other stars lighting up the late-summer/early-fall horror slate.
