The Learning Tree

1970, Gordon Parks

4.7/5

The story, set in Kansas during the 1920s, covers less than a year in the life of a black teenager, and documents the veritable deluge of events which force him into sudden manhood. The family relationships and enmities, the fears, frustrations and ambitions of the black teenager in small-town America are explored with a strong statement about human values.

If you like The Learning Tree, you might also like African-American Films, American Coming-Of-Age Drama Films, 1960s English-Language Films, and Films About Racism.
