‘Surviving in da Hood’
A break
through within the UK Black film industry
I happen to attend a free film screening to watch ‘Surviving in da Hood’
at Goldsmith University on Thursday 10th
October 2013. I found this movie to be inspiring, funny entertaining and along
with the music and sound tracks it made it a great movie to see.
This production brings an insight into the talent, struggle and success
of young
people from urban communities living in the UK .
After the movie I had the opportunity to meet and speak with the
Directors, Shanice Lindsay and Errol Tucker from Platinum CAT Productions. I
found them to be inspiring and ambitious to have risen to the challenge of
making such a big production.
I feel there is a huge market for black urban talent in the UK and
on the big screen. What Platinum Cat Productions are doing is just excellent
work. I also congratulate Starlight Music Academy
on the excellent musical sound track throughout the movie. I’m looking forward
to getting a copy of the sound track CD.
I also found out that the ‘Surviving in da Hood’ DVDs will be out by
Christmas so I hope to get my hands on a few copies of these too, for Christmas
prezies.
