GOD’S STEP CHILDREN
United States | 1938 | Oscar Micheaux
One of the most controversial of Oscar Micheaux’s independently produced “race” films (Black-made movies for Black audiences) tells of a light-skinned Black woman whose obsession with whiteness turns her against her own people. Partly inspired by Imitation of Life, this complex film is “a rich, strange, sad achievement,” according to The Rough Guide to Film. Cleveland revival premiere. DCP. 70 min.
