Join your host Maura McAndrew for a free screening of the 1983 cult classic My Brother’s Wedding (Charles Burnett, 1983)
My Brother’s Wedding is the 1983 lost classic from trailblazing Black filmmaker Charles Burnett. Set in South Central LA, the film follows Pierce, a young man adrift in his twenties. When his best friend is released from prison and his brother gets engaged to a snooty upper-class woman, he finds himself at a crossroads. From Criterion: “Charles Burnett’s second feature is an eye-opening revelation— wise, funny, heartbreaking and timeless.”
Maura will provide production notes, back story, and cultural context before the screening.
