The Banker 2020

Saw advance screening in NYC with Q&A with Dir. George Nolfi and Producer/Actor Anthony Mackie. Excellent historical drama about the first 2 African American men real estate moguls in the early 60s. To succeed, they had to use clever means to subvert systemic racist policies of Jim Crow and redlining designed to deny African Americans the wealth accumulation of the American Dream. But how long can they chase that elusive dream before the noose of white supremacy tightens around their necks? Samuel Jackson provides comedic levity, Nia Long holds the moral arc and reminders that while the men play for equity, the women are still left out. Will stream on Apple TV+ and theatrical release in December - go see it!
