Review of White Dog (1982) by Timothy M — 06 Jan 2011
Not really a subtle film. Interesting though, and not at all the usual lazy finger-wagging at racism that Hollywood likes to indulge in now and then to feel good about themselves. I like that Fuller is looking at aspects of racism that aren't usually looked at, especially the cultural and social indoctrination of bigotry.
The film might have been better served if a few truly goofy and hysterical moments had been excised, but then the film might have lost some of its personality (and as a Fuller film, it has it in spades).
Also: Burl Ives > Everyone.
