Previous Film Series

February 3 – February 24, 2024

Programmed by Tyler Balentine

Music Box Theatre is proud to bring to you our Black History series, “Melanin, Roots and Culture,” for the month of February. Our five-film series embraces the contribution of Black and African-American filmmakers and their work throughout the late-20th and early-21st Century; highlighting the radiant culture and depictions of African-American life within the realms of love, family, spirituality, politics, comedy, music, and martial arts. Join us for a celebration of some of our favorite historic and luminous films (including two Chicago classics, BARBERSHOP and LOVE JONES) by artists of the Black-African diaspora on the big screen this February.
