Darrell -- Thanks for the qualifier, and for the reference to these
two films, which I will now attempt to find! Auntie was released on
DVD but doesn't seem to be available anywhere.
Best, Michele

If you do choose to use it, please supplement it with the docs Black and White in Colour and the Black and White Media Show. Portions of each provide a bit more texture and offer some degree of multi ethnicity.
