The Emperor Jones
Dudley Murphy
Ooh a really fantastic work. The final monologue in particular is acted wonderfully, and Robeson's portrayal is incredibly convincing. Murphy does things with the camera that are just insane. Absolutely no idea how he pulled it off back then. I walked into it with next to no knowledge of what was going to happen and I think that's the best way to watch it. All the actors do a fantastic job and it feels like the movie was ahead of its time in so many ways. Want to now watch the play and look into the lives of some of these actors.
