Movie Night at the Museum

A screening of the classic film ZOU, released in 1934, and starring a young and beautiful laundress (played by Joséphine Baker), who impresses everyone around her with her talent and wit. Longing for the love of her handsome adopted brother Jean, played by Jean Gabin, she instead finds the possibility of enormous success in the musical theater. Ms. Baker, who was the first black woman to star in a major motion picture, is perfectly cast in the lead role in this thoroughly enjoyable French film.
