Wyatt Cenac’s Adventures in Moviegoing

A former writer and correspondent for The Daily Show , the star of Barry Jenkins’s first feature Medicine for Melancholy , and the producer and host of the HBO series Wyatt Cenac’s Problem Areas , comedian and actor Wyatt Cenac is also a passionate cinephile who, unsurprisingly, has strong insights into what makes for good screen comedy. In this edition of Adventures in Moviegoing, Cenac sits down with film scholar Michael B. Gillespie to discuss his selection of favorites, which include button-pushing racial satires from Spike Lee and Robert Downey Sr., graceful cinematic charades by Jacques Tati, and trailblazing works by Ousmane Sembène and Horace Ové.
