The Museum of Modern Art in New York has unearthed a rare find from its own extensive archives – unedited, untitled and unreleased footage from a 1913 film with an all-Black cast and an interracial production crew. It’s the subject of a new exhibit, “100 Years in Post-Production: Resurrecting a Lost Landmark of Black Film History”. Ron Magliozzi, associate curator in MoMA’s film department, joins us with details.
