Get Out: Movie Showcase and Discussion

Jordan peele's 2017 debut film "Get Out" is more than just an award winning horror film, it also features many hidden messages about how race is treated in today's society. "Get Out" Trailer and Wrap-Up: Chris' girlfriend, Rose, invites him to a weekend getaway at her parent's home. At first, Chris believes that her family's overly friendly behavior is a way to deal with their daughter's interracial relationship, but a series of disturbing events lead him to a much different truth about the family.
