Spencer Williams

Using mainly non-professionals in his films, Williams created an authentic world of the black segregated South, but yet a world that is full of life, traditions and the enveloping atmosphere of love and community. Jaded, cynical eyes today might scoff at these films, as simplistic, comical and naïve, but that is to entirely miss the point.
