Amazon Prime Video’s “The Underground Railroad” and Netflix’s “Bo: Burnham: Inside” are among the final round of entertainment series to be honored by the Peabod…
“The Underground Railroad” award was presented by Ibram X. Kendi. “In Colson Whitehead’s 2016 novel, the figuratively magical network that aided enslaved people in their pursuit of freedom took on a real mythical valence: the miracle of The Underground Railroad was powered by a literal locomotive,” said Peabody in its description of the winner.
It’s the latest kudo for the limited series, which comes from Plan B, Pastel and Big Indie, with Amazon Studios.,” Peabody noted that “Bo Burnham’s comedy special doubles as a multimedia tour de force, an artistic manifesto, and a lockdown diary. Every new comedic musical number, with titles like ‘FaceTime with My Mom ,’ ‘Problematic,’ and ‘White Woman’s Instagram,’ feels like a call for help—the kind that gets louder and all the more disquieting the more it drones on.
Description: “In the concert documentary film ‘Summer of Soul,’ musician and debut director Ahmir ‘Questlove’ Thompson puts us in the front row of a seminal event that should be as legendary as Woodstock but had been relegated to the dusty and neglected storage bins of history: the Harlem Cultural Festival in the summer of 1969.
