BlacKkKlansman

Thursday 5th March 2020
135 minutes. Cert 15.

Director: Spike Lee
United States  2018
Spike Lee won the Oscar for best script for his film about police officer Ron Stallworth.  Back in the 1970’s, black officer Stallworth and white partner Flip Zimmerman managed to infiltrate the Ku Klux Klan, at great personal risk.  Spike Lee’s intelligent script (which veers between humour and tension) manages to draw parallels between the racism of that time and modern America.
