What Is That Black Enough for You?!? Is About
The critic Elvis Mitchell's 2022 documentary traces the place of Black actors and directors in American cinema through the decade between 1968 and 1978. Mitchell refuses to reduce the period to one genre, putting the films known as blaxploitation alongside social realist work, independent directors and the studios' calculations inside a single account. Its strongest quality is the use of archive: short excerpts are set next to one another to show how a performer was positioned in front of the camera. Mitchell brings his own childhood filmgoing into the story, and that personal register gives the film more than an essay in criticism. The closing section argues about why the door closed again. Who it's for: viewers who like film history and critical essays. Who it's not for: anyone wanting to learn what the films are about; this one analyses rather than introduces.
