Jordan's Comment: "I love showing controversial films at the JRFF, and they don't come much more controversial than Malcolm X. It's an intense biopic of the highly controversial Black Muslim leader. Spike Lee claimed that only a black man could have directed Malcolm X."
Trivia: Malcolm X is the only non-documentary film that has been permitted to film in Mecca.
