When a director and his producers wave a name above their film, they have a weighty shipping responsibility that defines their work.. This is the hertz messenger before the camp., The first prominent cursor that agrees intentions and directions, Pouring meanings and possibly interpreting in essence the move of the entire film. And, of course, it's also a means of selling an image and collapsing to capture the attention of the intended audience.. And so when Shaka King, Will Bresson, Kenneth and Keith Lucas decided to give their film the name (“Judas and the Black Messiah “) They were well aware of the conditional reflex and the instinctive meanings that this name would come up, At least among Christian viewers, it's impossible to avoid it..

Supposedly a symbol of treacherousness, To stick a knife in the back, Chapter A’ In the introduction to anti-Semitism. But did he do it for money and perhaps even on Jesus Himself's mission?, The theory and philosophical discussions have been stretching ever since.. For if Jesus had not been raised to the Cross and died in agony, he would have died in agony., And came to heaven and came back from them as the Son of God. (“Dino (diss.)”) There were not hundreds of millions of Christians in the world celebrating Easter today..

When deciding King, Bresson and the Lucas Rock their story with the narrative basis of the New Testament and offer it as an adaptation of the story of Fred Hampton's relationship, Who was Hugh”Illinois chapter of the Black Panther Party of the late 1960s in the U.S.”In with William (Bill) O'Neill who was his driver et al.”As head of the chicago branch's security team, They create an equation that is also a political parable of mythological annotation, Religious. Hampton is, of course, Jesus and O'Neill is the treacherous Judas.. And so the murdered leader will anoint the aristocrat of black Liberation War heroes even today., In the second decade of the 20th century 21 (“Black Lives Matter”) , An era of social awakening and identities war in torn America.

As in“Sunset Boulevard” Defining and distinguishing thousands of differences, Here, too, the narrator is already a bar of their own, and here he is not the main character in the plot., It's just the one who looks at the real hero from the sidelines and brings his story to the screen.. O'Neill was a petty thief in Chicago who tried a variety of methods to sustain his occupation.. Among other things, he would present a fake policeman's certificate when he would break into the recreational lairs of other outlaws and empty their liquid assets., Including cars, On the way to the escape. When he was caught by”The real lawmen who are led to the FBI's encodings are presented with existential choice.. Many years behind bars or cooperating in trying to get close to the Hamptons and serve as an informant for the Federal Bureau of Investigation.. Days, As we know stormy days, The polarized 1960s and 1960s targeted killings stretched from the White House to the streets of cities and the black protests over their various leaders., Probably with some involvement of the FBI and its agents.. O'Neill decides to embrace his dual self, Despite the dangers lurking in the snitches of its kind among panthers.

Over a short period of time, he accompanies the man who is becoming increasingly charismatic and central to organizing protest activities demanding equal rights.. He sees Hampton., A young man in his early 20s gathers influence and power with the fiery revolutionary charm he pours on his surroundings. He sees a real leader who's willing to sacrifice everything., Including his life and freedom for the idea of the socialist revolution, The one who threatened white capitalist rule in the U.S.”B. He sees organizing abilities and wisdom., Connecting opponents and persuasion, He sees the logic in the rant, and he also sees the humanity of the black leader from Illinois.. How Hampton and the Panthers care about the education and food of black kids, How, Alongside the violence, compassion is also blossoming., Alongside the threat, the promise also flourishes.. And slowly O'Neill was also captured., He, too, is beginning to question his role as a double agent.. But his handler tightens his chokehold around his neck and O'Neill has no choice..

History tells us that Hampton was killed in a raid by Edgar Hoover's agents on his apartment in December. 1969 And that O'Neill was the one who guided them there., After pouring a blur in Hampton's glass at a party held just before. O'Neill himself recounted his role in the assassination of the black leader in a TV interview.”He himself committed suicide by hanging after publication..

In their film, too, they offer a direct encounter with O'Neill's character and thus turn their film into a kind of ballad about the man destined for greatness., Nickel prematurely became a legend. The question that remains hanging in the air is whether Hampton would have become a mythical figure had it not been for his elimination., Would he have grown to the rank of leader of a national magnitude like Martin Luther King or Malcolm X or faded for years?, Like the protest itself, it's only now rearming its head and looking for heroes..

Hampton's character gets a mention, Right now in another Oscar-nominated film about chicago events in the 1960s. “Trial of the Seven from Chicago” The bloody riots that broke out on the city's streets and the impasse trial held for some of the protest leaders also portrays Hampton as a warr.. But there he is a marginal figure., Even slightly pale squeezed into an angled beam of white characters. Here he fills the screen also because of his place in the story, But also because of the impressive abilities of Daniel Kaluya Who powerfully fills the demanding role. Also toKeith’ Stanfield , New New Year Bill O'Neill correctly convinces and shapes the mice image of the renegade in his compulsion.

“Judas and the Black Messiah” Is not a movie from the beginning and upwards, At the Academy Awards level, and certainly this year there's better than him., The theme and character hall, So is the social and political mission he's attracting., A film made to the fullest according to the new requirements of the organizers of the competition and the ceremony and a thyst for members of the American Academy of Voting, Surely they'll turn him into at least one center of interest that might guarantee him well., At least one prize...
