A "Black" Movie is not the escape of two people, but the exile of ethnic culture

The lawyer also thinks that she should escape. Maybe she also knows that the law is not on her side, right? Not living in that environment can be difficult to understand. With the development of the plot, the direction of the story is like the deep black background in many shots, which has a surreal meaning. Seeing half of it becomes clear, because this movie is not an escape of two people, but an exile of ethnic culture.

There are countless incidents of black people being shot and killed by the police. Of course, legitimate law enforcement is the majority, but who can say that those so-called "minorities" can turn a blind eye to it? This subject matter is mentioned repeatedly in rap music and stand-up comedies because people care about it. Need to care.

Among the black people of the same race who appeared in the movie, there are Pimp, Hooker, Gangsta, bar openers, hands-on meals, ignorant children who want to be remembered, and the most sensitive-the police. Because of the existence of racial issues, the opinions of people in different positions and identities are all displayed one by one. It is true that this fictional and even surreal story is a good subject for racial issues that is common but difficult to transcend.

The scenes of protest and Make Love are really wonderful. In the end, you have to stand until you get shot, which is also a cultural "position" that is displayed in such a romantic form. I can already imagine the black brothers standing up in the cinema and applauding (plus whistling and booing).

Rise In Power!

There is nothing wrong with symbolizing them (her) and symbolizing them.


Since it is a movie about black culture, the music in it is even more exciting. After the two people in the car first played Mike Jones-Still Tippin and then the heroine forcibly took Roy Ayers-Searching, the quality of the soundtrack has taken off. I like it very much, a lot of things that are very "rooted" (laughs). Post a list of tracks:

Finally, I posted a few favorite dialogues:

what do you want

What do you want?

I want someone to let me see myself clearly

I want a guy to show me myself.

I want him to love me deeply

I want him to love me so deeply,

Let me not be afraid to tell him how ugly I am

I'm not afraid to show him how ugly I can be.

I want him to expose scars I never knew

I want him to show me scars I never knew I had.

But I don't want him to erase those scars

But I don't want him to make them go away.

I want him to hold my hands while I heal myself

I want him to hold my hand while I nurse them myself.

I want him to cherish the bruises left on me

And I want him to cherish the bruises they leave behind.


I really hope you can survive this disaster

I really hope y'all make it.

I also hope that

Yeah, me too.

Even if you fail, it's okay

Just know, even if you don't, it'll be okay.

How to say

How so?

Because then you will become immortal

'Cause then you'll be immortal.

I also want to be immortal

I wanna be immortal, too.

You are too young to worry about these

You're too young to be worried about all that

I'm not young anymore

No, I'm not.

-I might not survive today-don't say that

-I could die today.-Don't say that.

I just want people to know that I exist

I just want people to know I was here.


Baby is a kind

babies are a product

The product of two people needing each other

of two people that needed something from each other.

So I asked again what is needed

So, I said, needed what?

He said they might need to feel concerned

He said, maybe they needed to feel seen.

May also need to feel loved

Maybe they needed to feel loved.

Maybe you need to feel like you're still a person

Maybe they needed to feel human.

Then I asked my grandmother

Then I asked my grandmother.

She said that the baby was given to us by God

She said, babies come from God.

So that God can make sure that no one will really die

They're His way of making sure no one ever really dies.

I remember what she said

I remember her saying,

Children give us a new life

Through our children, we are reborn.
