The American Experience on Film Blogathon – Day Two

~ Debbie

Got some more red, white, and blue posts for Day Two of The American Experience on Film Blogathon!

Dubism reports that The Jackie Robinson Story is a missed opportunity that inaccurately recounts the life of its title character as well as the history of non-white players in the sport of baseball.

MovieRob is surprised to find Woody Allen’s mockumentary Zelig both a compelling and effective portrayal of American life during the 1920s and 1930s.

A Shroud of Thoughts gives us a thorough overview of the popular 1960s sitcoms about small town American life, The Andy Griffith Show and Mayberry R.F.D.

That’s it for today. Join us tomorrow for more films about American life!
