In the 1980s, there were only 63 Black films by, for, or about Black Americans. But in the 1990s, that number quadrupled, with 220 Black films making their way to cinema screens nationwide. What sparked this “Black New Wave?” Who blazed this path for contemporaries like Ava DuVernay, Kasi Lemmons and Jordan Peele? And how did these films transform American culture as a whole?

Matthew recently participated in an in-depth analysis of Dune: Part Two on The Film Board podcast, also part of the TruStory FM entertainment podcast network. We're thrilled to share this discussion here, originally recorded for The Film Board, with our audience.In the vast expanse of cinematic storytelling, few tales grip the imagination quite like Frank Herbert's "Dune." With Denis Villeneuve's vision continuing to unfold in Dune: Part Two, The Film Board, including Pete Wright, Steve Sarmento, and our own Matthew Fox, gathered to dissect the intricate layers of prophecy, power, and the dangers of messianic zeal.As they ventured through the dunes of Arrakis, the conversation delved into the blurred lines between hero and conqueror, mirroring the mirages that haunt the desert planet. They explored Paul Atreides' struggle with his destiny against the backdrop of religious manipulation, a theme that echoes Herbert's foresight into the weaponization of belief systems.Under Villeneuve's direction, the narrative expands, bringing Chani to the forefront as a beacon of rationality in the midst of fanaticism's storm. Her perspective not only challenges Paul but also the audience, compelling a confrontation with the enticing trap of messianic figures.Drawing parallels between Herbert's universe and our own, The Film Board analyzed the Abrahamic origins of the messianic archetype, connecting the Fremen's zeal to the tangible intricacies of organized religion and the dynamics of indigenous movements.Ultimately, Dune: Part Two stands as a reflection of our own societal battles with faith, authority, and the repercussions of unbridled conviction. As the discussion wrapped up and the metaphorical twin moons of discourse and introspection set, The Film Board left listeners with a lingering question: In the grand narrative of destiny, do we exercise choice, or are we simply caught in the unstoppable current of fate?
