It is all about music on one hand and the emergence of the Blacks through music in the US on the other hand. As for music, it clearly shows how hip hop or rap are not a musical genres that come from nowhere but that they were prepared by and they inherit a lot from the blues, even maybe gospels, and I would even say jazz. The main idea developed by the film is that any musical form sums up older forms and trespasses their limits. It is true of Black music as well as any other form of art anywhere in the world. Black music is as so noit different at all from Mozart, Purcell or Verdi. Even the most revolutionary form is nothing but the descendent of previous forms.

It may have been underrated when first broadcast on PBS on consecutive nights in the fall of '03, but executive producer Martin Scorsese's homage to the blues is a truly significant, if imperfect, achievement. "Musical journey" is an apt description, as Scorsese and the six other directors responsible for the seven approximately 90-minute films follow the blues--the foundation of jazz, soul, R&B, and rock & roll--from its African roots to its Mississippi Delta origins, up the river to Memphis and Chicago, then to New York, the United Kingdom, and beyond. Red, White & Blues is Mike Figgis's entry in the series.
