On March 10, 2024, American Fiction won the Oscar for Best Adapted Screenplay. Twyman sees a break through film for our generation, our latter-day A Raisin in the Sun. Bowen doesn't see the genius of Lorraine Hansberry in novelist Monk Ellison and the Ellison family. Two thumbs up! Or Meh? You decide as Bowen and Twyman tussle it out.
Show notes:
Wink’s “American Fiction”
Wink’s “The Human Race Concerns Me”
