Bless Their Little Hearts

Part of Two from the LA Rebellion – with My Brother’s Wedding

A key masterpiece of the LA Rebellion, Bless Their Little Hearts distills the social concerns and aesthetics of that trailblazing movement in African American cinema. Searching for steady work, Charlie Banks views his chronic unemployment as a kind of spiritual trial. But selling a few catfish can’t sustain a family of five while his wife, Andais, works to support them with dignity. Unable to face his own failures, Charlie finds solace in an affair that threatens his marriage, children, and everything he holds dear.

(Bill Woodberry, USA, 1984, English, 85 min, Digital)
