Georgia Brown

Hollywood's first all-black film since The Green Pastures tells the vibrant fable of rascally Little Joe, torn between the love of his good wife Petunia and the wiles of good-time bad girl Georgia Brown...and caught in a tug-of-war between emissaries from the Lord and Satan. How can virtue triumph over evil? Well, as Petunia says, 'Sometimes when you fight the devil, you gotta jab him with his own pitchfork.' Debuting movie director Vincente Minnelli (An American in Paris, Gigi) and stars Ethel Waters, Eddie 'Rochester' Anderson, Lena Horne, Louis Armstrong and Duke Ellington are more than a match for the devil in this musical treasure. With a soundtrack of dazzling standards including Taking a Chance on Love and Happiness Is a Thing Called Joe, Cabin in the Sky is a joyous classic.

This is the beginning to a 30 minute documentary about Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs). These institutions were created in the 1800s with the singular mission of educating African Americans who were prohibited by law from attending white schools. Some of the most noted HBCUs are located in Atlanta, Georgia: Spelman College, Morehouse College, Morris Brown College, and Clark Atlanta University. This consortium of institutions all located within blocks of each other are collectively referred to as the AUC. Each year thousands of African American students begin or continue their journey through their undergraduate years at institutions where black intellect and scholarship are championed and celebrated.

Another stab at Henry Fielding's hilarious novel about the amorous misadventures of a dashing young man in 18th century England. The brilliant 1963 version, starring Albert Finney as the lusty hero, won four Oscars.
