Historia
Julie Ethel Dash (born October 22, 1952) is an American film director, writer and producer. Dash received her MFA in 1985 at the UCLA Film School and is one of the graduates and filmmakers known as the L.A. Rebellion. The L.A. Rebellion refers to the first African and African-American students who studied film at UCLA. After she had written and directed several shorts, her 1991 feature Daughters of the Dust became the first full-length film directed by an African-American woman to obtain general theatrical release in the United States. Daughters of the Dust was named one of the most significant films of the last 30 years, by IndieWire.
Dash has worked in television since the late 1990s. Her television movies include Funny Valentines (1999), Incognito (1999), Love Song (2000), and The Rosa Parks Story (2002), starring Angela Bassett. The National Underground Railroad Freedom Center commissioned Dash to direct Brothers of the Borderland in 2004, as an immersive film exhibit narrated by Oprah Winfrey following the path of women gaining freedom on the Underground Railroad. In 2017, Dash directed episodes of Queen Sugar on the Oprah Winfrey Network.

¿Qué tienen en común películas como Casablanca, El Padrino y West Side Story? Además de su popularidad, han sido consideradas “significativas desde un punto de vista cultural, histórico o estético” por la Biblioteca del Congreso de los Estados Unidos y catalogadas en el Registro Nacional de Cinematografía, un listado de los tesoros del cine norteamericano que refleja la diversidad de las películas, y por lo tanto de la misma experiencia de Norteamérica. Cada año se añaden 25 películas al Registro. La lista actual de 525 películas incluye títulos de todas las categorías: documentales, clásicos de Hollywood, cine de vanguardia, cortos y cine mudo. El documental These Amazing Shadows es un detallado dossier de la rica y extensa filmografía estadounidense, no sólo desde un punto de vista cinéfilo, sino también cultural y humano.
