This 1922 movie poster is for a lost film, "The Bull-Dogger." The silent film followed the exploits of real-life African American rodeo star Bill Pickett. Pickett was a bulldogger, or steer wrestler, an act in which rodeo cowboys wrestle steer to the ground with their bare hands.
During the silent era, there were few opportunities for African Americans to break into the mainstream film industry. As a result, smaller studios specializing in making films by African American filmmakers for African American audiences sprang up. Called "race films," the resulting movies often boasted all-African-American casts and storylines that, unlike most mainstream films of the time, did not rely on racial stereotypes but rather attempted to explore important issues facing complex characters.

See any good movies this weekend?
