Bless Their Little Hearts (Woodberry, 1984): BFI Southbank, NFT2, 6.10pm


This film, which also screens on June 20th, is part of the Pan-African film season at BFI Southbank. Full details here.

Chicago Reader review:
Scripted and photographed by Charles Burnett and directed by his former film-school classmate Billy Woodberry, this wonderful neorealist look at a working-class black family in South Central LA (1984) is worthy of being placed alongside Burnett's Killer of Sheep. Passionately recommended.
Jonathan Rosenbaum

Here (and above) is the trailer.
