Description
"Probing perhaps more deeply than ever before into American racial practices." — The Nation Baldwin’s personal reflections on movies gathered here in a book-length essay are also an appraisal of American racial politics. Offering an incisive look at racism in American movies and a vision of America’s self-delusions and deceptions, Baldwin challenges the underlying assumptions in such films as In the Heat of the Night , Guess Who’s Coming to Dinner , and The Exorcist .
