Summary

🚨NEW EPISODE of @niceandneatthepodcast available on all streaming platforms‼️ EP. 65) “BHM MOVIE REVIEW: ‘QUEEN & SLIM’ - WE BELIEVE IN US” What up yal! We are back for another special edition episode brought to you by Universal Pictures in celebration of Black History Month. Today, we’re breaking down the powerful movie Queen & Slim, a modern take on the fabled story of Bonnie and Clyde. A film full of decisions, good and bad. This is the debut feature film from writer and director, Melina Matsoukas, starring actors Daniel Kaluuya and Jodie Turner-Smith as Queen & Slim. Set against a backdrop of Black Lives Matter protests, Queen and Slim follow a single fateful encounter that turns into a heart-wrenching cross-country journey as the two fight for their lives in search of freedom. Look, this movie is controversial for more reasons than just the encounters with police officers but the relationship that we have with one another as the black community. Some good and some not so positive and we talk about all of it in this episode! Queen & Slim provides an important message about what it means to be African-American in today’s climate, while also being an undeniable celebration of black love.
