Reader reviews for The Devil Finds Work

From the publisher

James Baldwin At The Movies... Provocative, timeless, brilliant.
Bette Davis's eyes, Joan Crawford's bitchy elegance, Stepin Fetchit's stereotype, Sidney Poitier's superhuman black man... These are the movie stars and the qualities that influenced James Baldwin... and now become part of his incisive look at racism in American movies.
Baldwin challenges the underlying assumptions in such films as "In the Heat of the Night," "Guess Who's Coming to Dinner," and "The Exorcist," offering us a vision of America's self-delusions and deceptions. Here are our loves and hates, biases and cruelties, fears and ignorance reflected by the films that have entertained us and shaped our consciousness. And here, too, is the stunning prose of a writer whose passion never diminished his struggle for equality, justice, and social change.
From "The Birth of a Nation" to "The Exorcist"--one of America's most important writers turns his critical eye to American film.

"From the Trade Paperback edition."
