THE HARDER THEY FALL
The Yeehaw Agenda strikes again with THE HARDER THEY FALL (trailer here), a Western created by Jeymes Samuels. The story (and the Yeehaw Agenda) is all about reclaiming a genre from which Black people have been largely erased. The film follows Nat Love (Jonathan Majors), an outlaw who makes a living robbing other outlaws, and his enemy Rufus Buck (Idris Alba), head of the Rufus Buck Gang, which also includes famed Cherokee Bill (Lakeith Stanfield) and Treacherous Trudy (Regina King). Stylistically this film is a true Western, and although I’m usually not a fan of the genre, this story really got me. The film also has a kick-ass soundtrack which includes Jay Z, Kid Cudi, Seal, Koffee, and Laura Mvula, to name a few.
