Not all of the movies on this list feature race as the central theme. You will find movies both new and old that feature interracial couples, or present a look at race relations for a certain time and place. In addition, I would suggest researching these movies online for more information, as their ratings (whether made for TV or NC-17) vary greatly.
One thing is certain: this list is sure to provide you with a few recommendations for movies you just might have missed. So, jump onto Netflix or get to Blockbusters and grab some popcorn....here they are:
