White Dog

Dir. Samuel Fuller (1982). Filmed in headlines, framed as allegory, Sam Fuller’s last great movie combines hard-boiled sentimentality and hysterical violence, sometimes in the same take. White Dog “naturalizes” racism in a striking unnatural way. While the movie’s white characters are invariably amazed by the whole idea of a “white dog,” the black characters treat its existence as a brute fact of life.
Fridays-Sundays, 7:30 p.m. Starts: Jan. 21. Continues through Jan. 23, 2011
