Meeting the Man: James Baldwin in Paris (1971) is currently available to stream in the UK on MUBI and MUBI Amazon Channel. Last verified on 4 August 2026 by ScreenSearch.
In 1970, a British film crew set out to make a straightforward literary portrait of James Baldwin set in Paris, insisting on setting aside his political activism. Baldwin bristled at their questions, and the result is a fascinating, confrontational, often uncomfortable butting of heads between the filmmakers and their subject, in which the author visits the Bastille and other Parisian landmarks and reflects on revolution, colonialism, and what it means to be a Black expatriate in Europe.
