Hello and thank you for downloading another episode of The Flixters Podcast! On this week’s show we talk about Judas and the Black Messiah, directed by Shaka King and starring Daniel Kaluuya and Lakeith Stanfield. It tells the story of Fred Hampton (Kaluuya), leader of the Chicago branch of Black Panther Party, and an FBI informant planted within the party played by Lakeith Stanfield. Check out the episode for what we thought. This week on Anniversary Corner we bring you: The Black Power Mixtape 1967-1975, Blame It on Fidel, Conspiracy, Michael Collins, and JFK. On Hidden Gems we discuss Disobedience (2017) directed by Chilean director Sebastian Lelio (A Fantastic Woman). Starring Rachel McAdams and Rachel Weisz as two former lovers who reunite in London following a tragedy. The film is set within the orthodox Jewish community of north London and at the heart of the film is who’s disobedience are we talking about and what type of disobedience is this? It’s a profound film with some truly great performances and one which you should go and watch. Check out the show for more deets!
