To Sleep With Anger

No upcoming showtimes scheduled.
Director: Charles Burnett
1990 / 102min / 4K DCP

An achievement every bit the equal of his Killer of Sheep (1978), Burnett’s unsettling, slow burn To Sleep with Anger cracks open the treasury of African American folklore to create a sinister, career-best role for Danny Glover, an undesirable guest from back home who darkens the doorstep of a transplanted Southern Black family now living in South Central Los Angeles, bringing with him a sly grin and unwelcome memories.
