Steve McQueen on How John Boyega s Star Wars Experience Shaped His Small Axe Role TheWrap 12/24/2020 © TheWrap Steve McQueen Small Axe A version of this story first appeared in the Documentaries issue of TheWrap s Oscar magazine. The past is ravishingly alive in Small Axe, a five-film anthology directed by Steve McQueen ( Shame, 12 Years a Slave, Widows ). Originally scheduled to premiere at the Cannes Film Festival (which was cancelled due to Covid-19), three of the films in the series eventually screened to raves at the virtual and drive-in New York Film Festival in September, prior to debuting on Amazon Prime. Set between 1968 and the mid- 80s in London s West Indian community, the movies include a real-life courtroom drama ( Mangrove ), a quasi-musical ( Lovers Rock ), and a police exposé ( Red, White and Blue ), all pulsating with McQueen s primal themes of justice, injustice and love. The filmmaker spoke to TheWrap about his work on the monumental series.
