,” the only Black History Month offering that’s still in its initial theatrical run, won’t be discounted until Feb. 24.
A new movie will be offered at participating AMC locations each week, starting with “Till” from Feb. 3-9; “Devotion” from Feb. 10-16; “The Woman King” from Feb. 17-23; and concluding with “Black Panther: Wakanda Forever” from Feb. 24-March 2. “AMC has a long-standing commitment and track record of inclusive programming and initiatives that highlight diverse, creative talent behind the camera and on the big screen,” said Elizabeth Frank, AMC’s executive VP of worldwide programming and chief content officer.
The initiative, designed to highlight and celebrate Black filmmakers and actors on the big screen, was inspired by an internal group of employees on AMC’s council on the African American experience. Frank added, “This programming initiative, which perfectly aligns with AMC’s inclusive programming, originated from the Council on the AMC African American Experience, an internal group of associates that strengthens AMC’s culture by defining opportunities to embrace diversity, lead with fairness and impartiality, and create a more inclusive work environment.”

These are not educational or historically accurate films. They are also financial flops besides Black panther 2 but even that has made $500M less than the first one. One more point. They were made by Sony, Amazon & Disney. White companies who get all the profits.
wow what pandering & privilege. The definition of race discrimination.
Referencing The Woman King, a movie about black slave owners seen through a revisionist lense... How awkward.
Need to be for black people only
🙄
Why would they give discounts to those movies? Did the people involved work less to make these films. Sounds a bit racist to me. Cheaper ticket prices for movies about black people? Prices should be doubled, especially for white people.
