Trey’s Table Episode 265: Genius

  • Summary

  • **🚀✨ New Episode Alert! ✨🚀**

    Hello friends, Trey Smith here, and I’m excited to share the latest episode of *Trey’s Table*—Episode 265, where we dive into the classic sci-fi film *The Brother from Another Planet*!

    Written and directed by the legendary John Sayles, this 1984 gem isn’t just a quirky sci-fi flick—it’s a powerful allegory about race, identity, and the African-American experience. We’re talking themes of slavery, the Underground Railroad, the immigrant experience, and the importance of community.

    And let’s not forget Joe Morton’s *iconic* performance as The Brother—a mute alien navigating the streets of Harlem with quiet dignity and resilience. It’s a masterclass in acting and a reminder of why this film still resonates today.

    🎙️ Tune in to hear the full breakdown and why *The Brother from Another Planet* is a must-watch for anyone who loves thought-provoking cinema.

    👉 **Listen now** and let me know your thoughts! What’s your favorite scene or theme from the movie? Drop a comment or DM me—I’d love to hear from you.
