Baadasssss Cinema (2002)

Director:
Isaac Julien

Dokumentarac o blaxploitation talasu u američkoj kinematografiji 70-ih godina prošlog veka. Na ceo ovaj fazon je baš dosta uticao Black Power movement na čelu sa Crnim Panterima, a o tome najbolje svedoči Tupakova keva koja je u to doba i sama bila u priči. Dokumentarac nam ukazuje na par najbitnijih naslova iz ovog podžanra, na filmove poput Sweet Sweetback's Baadasssss Song (1971), Shaft (1971), Super Fly (1972), Coffy (1973), itd. ima ih zaista brdo. Naravno, ne treba zaboraviti ni okultni rad Blacula (1972) koji je ludilo za sebe, pa onda razne kung-fu čamuge i još 300 čuda.

Kažu ljudi ovde da su crnci u to doba pobeđivali isključivo u ovakvim filmovima, u stvarnom životu to je bila nemoguća misija, tako da im je ovaj fazon bio ko neka vrsta socijalnog ventila, i pored toga što su neki crnački lideri bili totalno protiv ovakve vrste filmova prozivajući čak autore da na taj način stvaraju negativnu sliku o crncima u SAD, predstavljajući ih kao dilere, razbojnike, i uopšte sve te tipove anti-heroja.

Tu je i Kventin Tarantino koji je očigledno veliki fan blaxploitation talasa, a što može i da se provali iz par njegovih filmova, npr. Pulp Fiction, Death Proof, pa i Jackie Brown ima tako te elemente između redova. Dakle skroz zanimljiv i zabavan dokumentarac, i ukoliko vam se svidi ovaj trip neke od pomenutih fimova možete naći na Exploitation film collection blogu. Znači, realna preteča Obame. (55 min)

"What a great treat to find so many beloved icons in Isaac Julien's excellent documentary about blaxploitation cinema: actors Pam Grier, Fred Williamson, and Gloria Hendry, among others, as well as directors Gordon Parks and Melvin Van Peebles. Through their piercing perspectives, plus commentary by the likes of film critic Elvis Mitchell and (of course) cult aficionado and filmmaker Quentin Tarantino, Baadasssss Cinema makes a persuasive argument that 1970s blaxploitation was both an American achievement and a temporary fix for Hollywood's then-economic doldrums. Julien gracefully leads viewers on a tour of blaxploitation's aesthetic and social roots, including a desire by African American audiences to see black protagonists stand up to power. Baadasssss Cinema also explains the appeal of warhorse movie genres--gangster films, horror--to the blaxploitation industry, discusses African American ambivalence in the '70s toward the films' new racial stereotypes, and makes sense of blaxploitation's commercial burnout once Hollywood got hold of the formula."
