Malcolm X 35 mm GFT
20 October, 2019, 6.15 p.m.
We are delighted to have the rare chance to screen Malcolm X on 35mm as part of Black History Month. This is going to be special. Civil-rights leader Malcolm X is strikingly immortalised in Spike Lee’s panoramic biopic, tracing his remarkable transformation from incarcerated juvenile felon to globally-renowned religious statesman. Denzel Washington delivers an electrifying performance as the charismatic and controversial minister, while co-star Angela Bassett brings understated, stoic elegance to her portrayal of his wife, Dr Betty Shabazz. All tickets £6
This screening will be hosted by Layla-Roxanne Hill, writer/curator-artist/activist-organiser and director at Scotland’s investigative journalism co-operative, The Ferret.
