The Forty-Year-Old Version
In the wonderful film The Forty-Year-Old Version, playwright Radha Blank plays a variation on herself. Frustrated by a stall in her theater career, Radha finds a new passion: she becomes a rapper. The film is so good that we recently added it to the New Black Film Canon \u2013 a list of the best films by Black directors that we updated in partnership with Slate. And you can watch it on Netflix.
