Soul Review - The Magic of Finding Your Purpose Comes to Life in Pixar's Latest
Pixar's Soul eloquently tells a story about the soul's purpose and the studios' first Black lead in Jamie Foxx. Stop reading this and watch it on #Disney+.
Disclaimer: Disney provided me with a screener of Soul before its release on Disney+. Trailer courtesy of Pixar’s YouTube channel Anyone who’s watched a Pixar film knows the name Pete Docter. He joined the animation studio as the company’s tenth employee and its third animator. He wrote the screenplay for Toy Story and Toy Story before going on to write and direct Monster’s Inc in 2001, became…

I actually thought ‘Soul’ was already available! Did it pop in the cinema first...then to Disney+?
(If it hasn’t....it’s a good strategy to get some analytics on how many subscribers end up adding the film to their watch list...and....visiting the page before it’s release)
PS: I’m so glad I live in the future!
PPS: According to IMDB it hasn’t been released anywhere! So that means...the premier would be on Disney+!
PPPS: Oh....my....goodness!!!! Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross are scoring a Pixar film!??? No....way....No way....excitement levels....have increased.....300%!!!!

Black Artists Matter: The Resurrection of the Harlem Arts Festival, 1969

The Harlem Arts Festival, which ran from June 29 to August 24, 1969 (on Sundays at 3 PM) featured some profoundly important musicians (only one of whom went on to play at the fabled “Woodstock Festival” which ran from August 15-18, 1969 in Bethel, New York). This festival which was…
