The Sweet East/The American Society of Magical Negroes
This was a week of films that were not great. One is a Alice in Wonderland picaresque following a hipster down the East Coast. The second is a wildly misguided attempt at racial satire that is woefully hollow.
Ariana and Seth watched The Sweet East and The American Society of Magical Negroes. They have many thoughts.
