Poster for Goodbye Uncle Tom

Goodbye Uncle Tom

1971 · Italy · 123m
Obscurity: cult. watchable legally

Jacopetti and Prosperi's slavery reconstruction, and the most indefensible thing the mondo pair ever shot.

Poster for Africa Addio

Africa Addio

1966 · Italy · 132m
Obscurity: known. watchable legally

Not staged, which makes it far worse. A repellent document.

Poster for Mondo Cane

Mondo Cane

1962 · Italy · 108m
Obscurity: known. watchable legally

The original. Oscar-nominated song, colonial gaze, half of it staged.
