Time magazine's Richard Corliss draws up a list of 25 films "to honor the artistry, appeal and determination of African Americans on and behind the screen" in commemoration of Black History Month. Cool. It's a great list. Our only qualm is how Corliss sometimes chooses a film not for its quality or impact, but for its casting, which is fine, but then, the name of the list would need to be expanded a bit. Right?
In any event, yes, there are some classics on there as well as a few worth (re)discovering, so at the very least your Netflix queue should be getting a workout.
