Review of Citizen Ashe (2021) by Murtada Elfadl for The Playlist — 16 Sep 2021
The filmmaking is not as distinctive as what Pollard achieved with “MLK/FBI.” Perhaps that’s because this is not a confrontational piece. It follows Ashe’s lead of cool, calm and collected. Yet sometimes it needed more oomph to reflect what Ashe was concerned about; racism and equity.
He might have been mild-mannered, but he was not shy. This documentary is so agreeable; it can quickly fade away from memory.
