'Bama Girl
Documentary Feature/Featured
Bama Girl follows a young black woman's quest to become the 2005 Homecoming Queen at the University of Alabama, running against not only 15 other co-eds, but a strictly segregated Greek system, internal black politics, and, most ominously, a secret all-white association called 'The Machine' that has been controlling campus politics at the University for most of the past century. This is a film about black and white, about the Old South and the New South, and about an unexpected microcosm of electoral politics that mirrors much of what is happening across our country today.

What the Success of New Moon and The Blind Side Can Do For Women

Can the combination of New Moon and The Blind Side reorient Hollywood’s thinking about women and their entertainment buying power?

Anecdotally and reflected in the success of films like Mamma Mia and Sex and the City, women are much more likely to go to the movies in large groups as they grow older than men. It’s a component of Tyler Perry’s success that African American women in their 20s are just as likely as African A [...]
