Review of The Negro Soldier (1944) by Stcenterprise . — 01 Sep 2015
For a film that was made in 1944 this film was actually very good I thought. I never realised that such a film had put African Americans in such a bright light. I find it interesting that for a war film the message was told inside a church. I learned some things about what African Americans activities in American History that I had never heard of before such as their involvement in the Revolutionary War or War of 1812. In some ways it did not seem realistic the way which they chose to tell the story such as the lady reading a long letter in the middle of a church service.
This film also hardly touches on the Civil War. It practically skipped over the war.
The footage was good.
