"Cadillac Record"
After I watched some parts of movie, "Cadillac record", I thought it's pretty interesting and watched whole movie. Overall, this movie was good and interesting. It is about Chess records, and the musicians who had contract with Chess records. I think this movie more concerned about Muddy Waters than other musicians like little Walter, Etta James, etc. I wasn't know about anything about these artists and Chess records. But after I watched this movie, I could learn something about them. I also like this movie which related to historical background too. This movie showed how society treated African American in middle of 20th century. I shocked when I showed the scene that white police officers hit little Walter for minor reason. Ironically, many white people loved African American musicians' music, but they were not exception from radial segregation. They couldn't get right credit for their contribution about music in that time. Also they had to just see some white artist stole their songs. It was so tragic.
