Kasi Lemmons’ Black Histories and Dreamworlds (feat. Christina Baker)
Episode 189

Former actor Kasi Lemmons has charted her own cinematic path since tiring of “best friend” roles in mid-90s. The versatile director of “Eve’s Bayou” (1997), “Talk To Me” (2007), and “Harriet” (2019) has gradually cultivated a fascinating directorial career. To discuss this pioneering Black female filmmaker and genre-agnostic dramatist, we’re thrilled to be joined by Professor Christina N. Baker, editor of “Kasi Lemmons: Interviews.”

Movie Reviews & Reappraisals
Be Reel is a movie reviewing & reappraising podcast hosted by Chance Solem-Pfeifer and Noah Ballard.
Each time out, we select three movies based around a genre and call up guests ranging from submarine captains to Oscar winners. Then, we rate the movies, weighing both technical quality and entertainment.
Noah and Chance are old friends who mostly respect each other’s opinions. Even though Chance is a fool and a traitor. Find their show presented at ThePlaylist.Net and follow them on Twitter for the latest on Noah’s literary agenting and Chance’s work in the Portland arts scene.
