Godfather of Harlem (2019)
Excellent but research?
Just watched episode 3 (Mecca) of season 3. I cannot understand why such an excellent series fails to do basic research. Malcolm X visits Mecca. He asks his host there to acompany him on the Haj (pilgrimage). They walk together, Malcolm in suit and tie, his mentor in traditional garb resembling Pakistani clothes, surrounded by pilgrims in the Haj traditional wraparound fabric. No one wears tailored clothes during the Haj. They all have to be in the Haj attire. Later he asks his host if they could pray together and his host agrees. They proceed both still wearing shoes which is not done. Simple research would have made that clear. A real pity because any muslim viewer would immediately spot that and react. Otherwise, I love the show.
Overcomer (2019)
Tiresome.
Maybe has its merits but all this God thing is way too American. Tiresome for a European audience. Definitely not a sports film. I wonder if it's not produced by some religious organisation.
The Midnight Sky (2020)
Makes you think
This film actually makes you think about what we are doing to our planet and the legacy we are leaving our children.
