My small review of Malcolm X (1992) movie

I watched few documentaries on PBS & history channel about Malcolm X. I know the complete story but because of Spike Lee & Denzil, I broght this DVD.
This movie was based on book “The Autobiography of Malcolm X
{According to Time, it is one of the top ten most important nonfiction books of the 20th century.}
Few experts from the movie are

Let us face reality. We can see in the United Nations a new world order being shaped, along color lines-an alliance among the non-white nations. America's U.N. Ambassador yyy complained not long ago that in the United Nations "a skin game" was being played. He was right He was facing reality. A "skin game" is being played. But Ambassador xxx sounded like Jesse James accusing the marshal of carrying a gun. Because who in the world's history ever has played a worse "skin game" than the white man?

The reason is that among all Negroes the black convict is the most perfectly preconditioned to hear the words, "the white man is the devil."

You will find other Excerpt’s from here.

Spike Lee direction was very crisp & Denzil performance was terrific as Malcolm X with his dialogs. If you are in to this kind of movies, it is worth watching. My rating 10/10
