Stacker's 50 Movies That Address the History of Racism in America
Favs/dislikes: 5:0. WRITTEN BY ELONA NEAL JANUARY 23, 2021 Movies give us perspective and allow us to watch certain events play out in front of our eyes. They can be educational and entertaining, making proper representation a significant factor in filmmaking. Black representation in Hollywood was almost nonexistent in the early 20th century, and when images of African Americans were shown, they were given negative stereotypes and criticized with racist imagery and oppression. Years of systematic racism riddle the Black community today, but it was even more blatant back then. Young Black children around the country would turn on the television to a lack of positive images outside of racial stereotypes. As the years went on, Black representation slowly but surely began to make its way through the airwaves, and it started to educate people on the realities of Black lives as many Black filmmakers, actors, and writers created a new cycle of Black cinema with a variety of genres. Black films have become a staple in the Black community, leaving long-lasting impacts on the culture for years to come. Black artistry continues to rise in theaters and on television as the industry learns to cater to different skin types, film angles, genre diversities, and plot lines within Black culture. Stacker extensively researched the history of Black filmmaking and Black lives captured on screen in both fiction features and documentaries, and compiled a list of 50 diverse films that address the history of racism in America in one way or the other using IMDb data as of June 3, 2020. To amplify Black voices and firsthand experience, the overwhelming majority of the films on this list are made by Black filmmakers. The films are organized chronologically. Check out these stories that shine a light on Black voices throughout cinema. -

The 100 Best Film Noirs of All Time
Favs/dislikes: 5:0. This list acknowledges the classics of the genre, the big-budget studio noirs and the cheapest of B noirs made on the fringes of the Hollywood studio system. But we’ve also taken a more expansive view of noir, allowing room for supreme examples of the proto-noirs that anticipated the genre and the neo-noirs that resulted from the genre being rebooted in the midst of the Cold War, seemingly absorbing the world’s darkest and deepest fears. -
The 15 Best Movies Influenced by Bertolt Brecht’s Theater Techniques
Favs/dislikes: 5:0. Since the beginning of cinema, the theater has been a major influence on the medium. Cinematic staging is largely based on precepts from the theater. Though cinema developed its own language, a lot of traces of theater are still present. To point out the obvious, most acting techniques come directly from theater. Perhaps in Hollywood cinema the major influence was the Stanislavski system. Stanislavski proposed a school of acting where the actor was expected to control every facet of his performance in order to mix theatrical emotions with real ones to create a truly dramatic performance. This style can be seen in Robert De Niro’s performance in Raging Bull, or in almost every Daniel Day-Lewis performance. The literary counterpart of this was incarnated in the person of the German poet and writer Bertolt Brecht. Brecht proposed the “epic-theater”, where the thoughts were more important than emotion. For Brecht a play was completed outside the theater, in the reflections of the audience when the play is over. To achieve this he employed the verfremdungseffekt (distancing effect), a strategy which constantly reminded the audience that they were in a theater. In Brechtian theory, if the spectator knows that what he is watching is fiction and is not driven by an emotional identification, he can complete the play in his mind. Brecht was also a Marxist and his main interest was to expose contradictions from the stage, and involve the audience. He never gave complete answers which would go against dialectical exercise. The influence of these ideas became so prominent, that there are a number of examples of them in cinema. Some of his techniques became popular in modern cinema, though not necessarily with the same objectives Brecht had in mind. Addressing the audience by breaking the fourth-wall was one of Brecht’s revolutions, but now this is quite normal, and is not always related to distancing ideas. This 15 films listed are among the finest examples of Brecht’s lessons applied to film. -
