DESCRIPTION:\n	Queens Drive-In\, on the grounds of the New York Hall of Sci
 ence in Flushing Meadows Corona Park\, is located at 47-01 111th Street\, 
 Corona\, New York 11368 \n	\n\n\n	Dir. Steve McQueen. UK\, 2020\, 128 mins
 . In the late ’60s\, Frank Crichlow\, the Trinidad-born owner of a café in
  Notting Hill\, London\, increasingly found himself and his establishment 
 the targets of white police intimidation and brutality. A meeting place fo
 r the local West Indian community as well as the area’s Black activists an
 d intellectuals\, the Mangrove restaurant was raided numerous times withou
 t any evidence of illegal activity\; finally\, the fed-up community took t
 o the streets in protest\, resulting in the arrests and violent treatment 
 of several demonstrators. An epic piece of Steve McQueen’s Small Axe antho
 logy\, this vivid and gripping dramatization of these events and the resul
 ting landmark 1970 trial of the defendants—who came to be known as the Man
 grove Nine\, and some of whom acted as their own counsel—is a stinging ind
 ictment of a system rotted by racism and a powerful portrait of resistance
 \, passionately performed by a remarkable cast led by Shaun Parkes as Cric
 hlow\, Letitia Wright as Altheia Jones-LaCointe\, and Malachi Kirby as Dar
 cus Howe. \n	\n		Small Axe is a collection of five original films by Steve
  McQueen set from the late 1960s to the mid 1980s that tell personal stori
 es from London's West Indian community\, whose lives have been shaped by t
 heir own force of will despite rampant racism and discrimination.&nbsp\;\n
