Good but not good enough... Four and a half stars, but it's what an American Hollywood drama should look like...

The film explores how ethnicity is defined by skin color, class, culture, nationality, etc. in various contexts? The setting of the two protagonists transcends stereotype as an aesthetic representation. Blacks are not working lower-class blacks, but pianists who enter the house; Tony's complexion is white, originally us in us vs them, but because he has the alterity of lower-class people , so his ethnicity was highlighted - Italian. And we look at white people without skin color (and their various discriminatory actions) from the perspective of two protagonists with racial characteristics, who are in a sense racial. Because of the invention of race, it is more to serve the day-to-day operations of more hidden cultural practices (piano, jazz, bars, KFC) and political discourse (the fuse of conflict). This film subverts the norm, extends the issue of raciality to everyone to a certain extent, and also points out the mimesis nature of discriminatory discourse. But the filming is too skillful, and the ending of "What a Wonderful Life" is regrettable. A story that can only happen in the United States once again ends with an American-style multiple ending.
