In anticipation for our 100th episode, we’re doing something special here at 1001 by 1. Each week, we will discuss a film celebrating an anniversary and then jump a decade later to discuss a different film celebrating an anniversary (1920, 1930, 1940, etc.). To start all the way back in 1920 to discuss a film celebrating its 100th anniversary, we were only given one option…but we are sure glad it was the only film to pick from: Oscar Micheaux’s “Within Our Gates”. During the episode, Adam & Ian discuss not knowing much (if anything) about Micheaux before watching the film, the unfortunately still relevant topics being examined in the film, and the “white savior” characters in films discussing race. Also, this week Adam recommends “Hamilton” (Available on Disney+) and Ian recommends “Da 5 Bloods” (Available on Netflix).
