Malcolm X: His Own Story as it Really Happened (1972)
http://www.megaupload.com/?d=DT9TTY6E
​

Adapted for the screen from the autobiography he wrote with Alex Haley's assistance, Malcolm X is a stirring portrait of the man whose life has become a rallying cry for millions. Narrated by James Earl Jones.

A truly well crafted documentary where excerpts from Malcolm X's autobiography and footage of his speeches drive the narrative. This is about as close to capturing the spirit of Malcolm X as well as the cultural climate in which he operated as you can get. There is no obtrusive narrator or newsperson offering up their slanted view of Malcolm X here. Archival footage is used to flesh out the scenes Malcolm X desribes in his autobiography, from his childhood to Boston, Harlem, Birmingham, and Mecca. There are also numerous vintage interviews with with Betty Shabazz, Elijah Muhammad,Philbert X, Ella Collins Little, James Farmer and many others. From the opening of the film with Billy Holiday's STRANGE FRUIT to Ossie Davis' eulogy, this is truly the film to watch if you want to see Malcolm X's incredible journey to becoming El Hajj Malik El-Shabazz and the impact he made upon America and the world.

--

This is the earliest attempts to piece together Malcolm's life for film. It is interesting to view it but keep in mind that this was made during the height of the Civil Right Movement so the film serves as an interesting look at what people wanted to show about Malcolm immediately after his death.

Well, as he wanted you to think it happened. Much of the "Autobiography" is fiction. Its purpose was myth-making.

This is the best Malcolm video (actually, "film") ever made. It has a lot of Malcolm footage in it. All of the later documentaries on Malcolm, don't feature enough of the man himself. This one has some great Malcolm clips and I urge everyone to watch it.

 

[Jane & Finch]

Right on!.

Malcolm X: Tribute
Published on May 24, 2012
This 1972 documentary tribute to the life and work of the assassinated Black Muslim leader Malcolm X was poorly received at the time of its release. However, it has grown in importance as Malcolm's place in African American history has grown. The backbone of the documentary is based on The Autobiography of Malcolm X.
