"In the words of Paul McCartney, it’s getting better all the time (we will ignore John Lennon’s rejoinder).

Here's some other press of the reviews (with quotes) that have come in so far for PIONEERS OF AFRICAN-AMERICAN CINEMA. The project was curated by Charles Musser from Yale University and Jacqueline Stewart.


The New Yorker
"The new five-disk set 'Pioneers of African-American Cinema' (Kino Classics) is a landmark in the history of the art form..."

LA Times:
"One of the year’s most exciting and historically significant archival projects"

Boston Herald:
"Fascinating cinematic history"

Flavorwire:
"The new box set is both a necessary contextualization of a cinematic movement and a counter-narrative to American film history."

RogerEbert.com (Blu-ray review):
"Pioneers of African-American Cinema" is an essential and groundbreaking Blu-ray set. It's more than worthy to be considered one of the most important and valuable releases of the year"

RogerEbert.com (interview):
"Kino Lorber's Pioneers of African-American Cinema set is ready to dazzle film buffs with its extraordinary archive of rarely seen cinematic treasures."

Huffington Post:
"This is an historic release. ...for all its landmark status it’s a pleasure to report that your first real response will simply be pleasure."

CriterionCast:
"It’s hard to consider the release of a piece of entertainment, specifically a DVD and Blu-ray box set, as a culturally significant moment, but then again there are few items quite like the newest release from the team at Kino Lorber. ...This collection of films is a must own for cinephiles, and a worthwhile purchase for those with other sociological interests.""
