Picture Lock Radio: Ep. 122- Picture Lock Summer Movie Preview w/ Film Gordon

Happy Friday folks! If you’re wondering what to check out this weekend, hopefully you caught me on my weekly Let’s Talk Live DC segment early today! If not, check it out here: https://youtu.be/DgKiKGuHajY. This weekend we have Dark Phoenix, Secret Life of Pets 2, and The Last Black Man in San Fransisco hitting theaters and I gave my thoughts on those films.

Last week I had Tim Gordon on to talk about what was coming out, but we weren’t able to get to the summer preview. So this week I’m joined again by Tim Gordon of filmgordon.com to go over the Picture Lock summer movie preview. And that’s all ahead, on Picture Lock!

Picture Lock Radio: Ep. 121- Ma, Godzilla, and Rocketman w/ Tim Gordon

Happy Friday folks! This week I’m joined by WAFCA President, Tim Gordon, to go over the big movies coming out this weekend. One that we don’t get to is the Netflix release “When They See Us” from Ava Duvernay that looks at the Central Park 5. It’s a tough watch but I suggest folks check it out as while it chronicles a dark spot in our recent history, the story is still playing out today. I spoke about it on Let’s Talk Live early today, so be sure to visit picturelockshow.com or follow me on instagram @picturelockshow to see that! What did you think about the films out this week? Let me know!

Picture Lock Unlocked: 2018 DC Black Film Festival- MBLMTF panel

Hey guys. Sorry I missed you last week! Before this Friday’s episode, I wanted to hit you with another unlocked episode. This year during the DC Black Film Festival we screened the documentary United Skates ahead of our Making Black Lives Matter Through Film Panel. You’ve already heard from co-director Dyana Winkler a couple of episodes ago, but I wanted you all to be able to hear the conversation as it was on stage, unedited. The panel was hosted by WHUR's EZ Street and panelists included: Dr. Erica L. James (professor Francis Marion), Damara Catlett (Principal at Raben Group), Reggie Brown (subject in the film), and Tim Gordon (film critic).

Tomorrow, you’ll have the opportunity to see the film during the Congressional Black Caucus if you live in the DC area. The link to the film screening, which is free, is in the show notes. So if I haven’t promoted this film enough, here’s one more opportunity to check it out. I hope you enjoy the 2018 Making Black Lives Matter Through Film Panel just after the screening of United Skates and let me know your thoughts on the conversation!
