Mariama Diallo on 'Eve's Bayou'

Mariama Diallo’s new debut feature film, MASTER, may be a horror movie, but just like Kasi Lemmons’ first feature, EVE’S BAYOU, it tackles themes of ritual and the supernatural. Mariama was about the same age as Eve (Jurnee Smollett) when she first saw the film. She and Jordan discuss both films, and the ways in which the promise of progress in ‘90s entertainment have been slow to materialize.Then, Jordan’s got some really important stuff to say about feeling seen by another title character: The Batman. What Should Be Learned From the End of UPN and the Golden Era of Black Television (The Mary Sue)20 Years Later, Eve’s Bayou Is Still a Stunning Portrait of Black American Life(Angelica Jade Bastién for Vulture)***Follow us on Twitter, Instagram, and FacebookWith Jordan Crucchiola and Mariama Diallo Help support this show and unlock bonus content!
