Tonight, an excellent film I saw earlier this year at the Full Frame Documentary Film Festival is premiering on UNC-TV: THE EDITOR AND THE DRAGON: HORACE CARTER FIGHTS THE KLAN at 10 pm.
Walter
E. Campbell and Martin M. Clark's hour long documentary concerns UNC
graduate Horace Carter's coverage of the Ku Klux Klan in the Tabor City
Tribune in the 1950s. Carter's editorials did not go unnoticed by Grand
Dragon Thomas Hamilton and his minions.
What I wrote after seeing it at Full Frame:
“Filmmakers
and UNC graduates Campbell and Clark got Carter on camera before his
2009 death to tell his tension-filled tale that led to him getting a
Pulitzer Prize in 1953. Photos, archival footage, new interviews, and
Morgan Freeman narration make up the doc may be in too much of a History
Channel-style, but that may be the most appropriate angle for this
material.”
Watch a trailer for THE EDITOR AND THE DRAGON.
More later...
