Title: A CELEBRATION OF SOUTHERN SLAVERY
Review: THIS VIDEO, WITHOUT A DOUBT, HAS A CERTAIN EDUCATIONAL VALUE. IT OFFERS US A NARROW (VERY NARROW) VIEW INTO A SELDOM SEEN AND LITTLE KNOWN ASPECT OF AMERICAN LIFE. THE CHARACTERS ARE COLORFUL AND THERE IS A CERTAIN CRUDE ELOQUENCE IN SOME OF THE DIALOGUE. HAVING SAID THAT, HOWEVER, IT MUST BE STATED THAT THERE IS A DEPRESSING ELEMENT TO THE THING, OVERALL. THE STORY IS ONLY TOLD FROM THE POINT OF VIEW OF THE PIMPS, WHO COME ACROSS AS VAIN, STRUTTING, EMOTIONALLY DERANGED VULTURES, NO DOUBT THEMSELVES THE VICTIMS OF SOME FORM OF EARLY CHILDHOOD ABUSE. THEIR FEEBLE ATTEMPTS AT CONCOCTING SOME FORM OF COHERENT CODE THAT JUSTIFIES THEIR TRADE AND METHODS ARE LUDICROUS AND TRANSPARENTLY SELF-SERVING. THE WHOLE THING, ON BALANCE, IS JUST ONE BIG MINSTREL SHOW. NO DOUBT 150 YEARS AGO IN THE SAME SOUTH, THEIR GREAT,GREAT,GREAT GRANDMOTHERS OVERHEARD SIMILAIR PROPAGANDA DISPENSED AROUND THE DINNER TABLES THEY WERE SERVING
Is the review positive or negative?
