“Losing Ground (1982) is one of the few independent films made in the 1980’s by a Black woman director. Kathleen Collins was a brilliant, highly talented professor of film. Unfortunately, she directed only this one commercial film, and tragically, she died when she was just 46 years old. The movie itself was largely ignored, and would have been truly lost except for a fortunate event. Collins’ daughter found the negatives, and Milestone has remastered the film for theatrical release.” (X) Losing Ground (1982, Directed by: Kathleen Collins, USA)

Hi! Just thought I'd share that Losing Ground is currently on Kanopy for anyone who has access to it! I'm excited to finally watch it ✨️

Thanks!!!

I love Losing Ground, not only is it a great film but the story of how it was restored and released is incredibly touching and says so much about filial love.

I love that since its release in 2016 it has built up an incredibly stellar reputation.

"How do we divest ourselves of the need to make ourselves extraordinary? The danger is that we must now be too good. If you've been too evil, if you've been the notion of sin incarnated and you're now trying to correct that balance, what do you do?

You make Black people into saints. You go from being a sinner to being a saint. Neither one is true. Neither one has anything to do with reality. Both are traps to dehumanize.

Both refuse to accept the fact that you live, breathe, and die out of an internal psyche, which is extremely private, extremely idiosyncratic, and is neither saint nor sinner..."

— Kathleen Collins, Master Class to Howard, 1982

The doctor, cursing my weakness, refused to listen to my pain, a pain that is like none other on the face of the earth. I swear it: it is as if your whole body were being ripped inside out hour after agonizing hour. And then it was all obliterated in a second, as I leaned forward to see the head and the shoulders and the bowled up legs come out of me. From somewhere, somehow, beyond me came one last push, lasting and lasting until my child had cleared the light of the day.
