For our eleventh episode of the season, we watched Kasi Lemmons' 1997 independent film, "Eve's Bayou". This film starring Samuel L. Jackson, Jurnee Smollet, Lynn Whitfield, and Diahann Carroll is a complex narrative about that examines difficult topics such as memory, complicated family dynamics, and Black spirituality. Written and directed by Lemmons, the story is set in the romantic and mysterious bayous of Louisiana during the mid-20th century. Join us as we review this week's film.
