Review of Judas and the Black Messiah (2021) by Windolicker — 11 Apr 2021
If you want race relations to heal in the US, do you repeatedly pick at the scab, keep making movies about previous injustices, slavery movie after slavery movie after slavery movie.....after.....wait for it.
....slavery movie; WE GET IT, you hate us. I think it is time for a divorce. I am citing irreconcilable differences. You know, on account of the whole "We hate you because of slavery even though you had no part in it" whole thing.
I'm seriously sick of it. Also, does anybody care about the Oscars? If you cared a year ago you are not too bright but in the last few months they announced that in order to get an Oscar, you have to meet certain diversity quotas or your film has to have a certain message about anti-racism.
So, the Oscars aren't about talent anymore; they aren't even pretending that it's about talent. No, they are flat out telling us that their nomination process is political.
