For FlickChick, this past weekend was bookended by two ethnically-charged film experiences. One movie was familiar and frail, while the other was powerful and moving. On Friday night, I went to go see the much-lauded 42. I’ve noticed on Twitter that usually when people say they saw 42, they clarify by adding: “The Jackie Robinson Story.” Yeah, FlickChick won’t be adding that highly misleading tagline. That’s not to say that 42 is a bad movie.
