From "the best essayist in this country (The New York Times Book Review) comes an incisive book-length essay about racism in American movies that challenges the underlying assumptions in many of the films that have shaped our consciousness.

Offering a look at racism in American movies and a vision of Americas self-delusions and deceptions, Baldwin considers such films as In the Heat of the Night, Guess Whos Coming to Dinner, and The Exorcist.Here are our loves and hates, biases and cruelties, fears and ignorance reflected by the films that have entertained and shaped us. And here too is the stunning prose of a writer whose passion never diminished his struggle for equality, justice, and social change. James Baldwin At The Movies. Provocative, timeless, brilliant.
