Killer of Sheep (1978)

“And I see my film here. And it’s the first time I’m seeing Killer of Sheep on Blu-ray. And I look forward to showing it to all my friends who hadn’t seen it. Be something to talk about.”

“The other greatest Black film ever made: Killer of Sheep, Charles Burnett. When I was in college, I would put together little film festivals at school, and I brought Charles there, and I showed the movie and everybody in the film program was blown away. This movie was made– He’d worked all week, saved enough money to buy a roll of film, shoot that roll of film, go back to work. And thank God for Charles Burnett for making a true masterpiece.”
