Natchez - Comments & Tips

[Sheffield '25] It's interesting to watch this film in the context of the new American administration's policies of reinterpreting history. That is the main theme: historical narratives that emerge from different perspectives, those that hide the reality of slavery in tourist tours that highlight the splendor of the lifestyle without showing the slave quarters in the back. And the one that looks from the perspective of the need to recognize and repair. Showing the contradictions of a city like Natchez also reflects the darkness behind the magnetism of nostalgia.
