Episode 255: 'Mississippi Masala' with Kevin Avery

Kevin Avery (writer, comedian, and former co-host of the premier Denzel Washington podcast) joins us to take a look at a young Denzel and first-time movie star Sarita Choudhury in Mira Nair’s sophomore feature from 1991, the often romantic, surprisingly political, and totally unique Mississippi Masala.
