🌟 Saturday Morning Classic: THE GREEN PASTURES (1936)
🎥 Starring: Rex Ingram, Oscar Polk, Eddie Anderson, Frank H. Wilson
📺 Presented by BlackTree TV

Step back into cinema history with The Green Pastures, a landmark 1936 film that brought biblical stories to life through the lens of African American culture and spirituality. Based on Marc Connelly’s Pulitzer Prize-winning play (adapted from Roark Bradford’s book Ol’ Man Adam an’ His Chillun), this movie reimagines the Old Testament as seen through the eyes of a Black congregation in the rural South during the early 20th century.

Plot:
Rex Ingram stars as “De Lawd,” leading audiences through a series of Old Testament tales — from the Creation and Noah’s Ark to Moses leading his people to the Promised Land. Told with warmth, humor, and a deep sense of faith, these stories unfold in a uniquely African American idiom, blending spirituals, gospel music, and a timeless sense of hope.

Why It Matters:
The Green Pastures is significant not only for its artistry but also for its place in film history — one of the first all-Black-cast films produced by a major Hollywood studio. While it reflects the cultural sensibilities of its time (both positive and problematic), it remains a testament to the enduring power of African American religious storytelling and performance.

We honor legends like Rex Ingram, whose commanding screen presence left an indelible mark on Hollywood, and Eddie “Rochester” Anderson, who would go on to become one of radio and TV’s most beloved comedians.
