EW Celebrating Black Films

Work
Entertainment Weekly celebrates the rich legacy of Black film and filmmakers in more than 100 years of movies. From Oscar Micheaux, a self-made auteur who in 1919 directed the first feature-length movie with an all-Black cast, to Ava Duvernay, Jordan Peele, Regina King and more new artists who are defining the future of Black movie-making. From first African-American Oscar winner Hattie McDaniel to legends like Lena Horne, Dorothy Dandridge, Harry Belafonte and Sidney Poitier to the stars of today: Denzel Washington, Viola Davis, Michael B. Jordan, Mahershala Ali, Tiffany Haddish and many more. Includes interviews with Spike Lee, Radha Black, Peter Ramsey (director Spiderman: Into the Spider-Verse) and others. A must for all movie lovers.
