It’s a fresh month and we’re coming at you with the freshest theme that we’re calling “BODY & SOUL”. All month long is Black Directors and Black Leads and we’re gonna kick it off with the directorial debut of classic Black Hollywood royalty. When Sidney Poitier took over the director reigns for the 1972 western “BUCK AND THE PREACHER” he got bit by the director bug. Eighteen years later he directed “Ghost Dad” so it was definitely worth it. Buck (Poitier) is a wagon master helping some former slaves move out West to avoid some Bounty Hunters looking to scare the Exodusters back to the south for a shitty life of indentured servitude. Along the way he meets Preacher (Harry Belafonte) and it’s hard to say if he can be trusted. I mean, he’s got bad teeth. Red flag #1. But Buck and the Preacher might have to work together to survive the promise of the journey. Also starring Ruby Dee who looks great on a horse. Also, what is the lore of the Ghost Dad v. Harlem Nights softball game? What’s the word on the game swag? Find out more right here, folks.
