February 21: Devil in a Blue Dress; 1995, 102 min., R

We celebrate Black History Month with writer/director Carl Franklin who brings novelist Walter Mosley’s iconic handy man/detective Easy Rawlins, perfectly embodied by Denzel Washington, to the screen. In support, Don Cheadle is marvelous as Easy’s terrifying, murderous protector.
