Although I liked get out very much, I didn't expect to get the best screenwriter all the way to the Oscars!
However, I have been seeing a lot, especially domestic friends who used a sentence of "political correctness" to evaluate the film, ironically discarding this factor and not worthy of an Oscar.
I also said below. In fact, there are many stalks hidden in get out. These stalks are very American and may not be understood by people who have not lived in this multi-ethnic environment; we can admit this kind of incomprehension and of course have power I don't think the movie looks good, but it shouldn't deny a movie entirely because of this. I live in North America and the atmosphere in the cinema is very, very nice when watching movies.
Besides, which of Theo's films is not "politically correct"? What's wrong with showing the subjects of color groups, homosexual groups, and women groups that have suffered unequal treatment over the years as the themes of the movie, so as to call the society to pay more attention to them?
The fact is, how many people satirize "political correctness" while looking at this movie with colored glasses?

First of all, congratulations to get out for getting Otti~ It's still a wonderful movie anyway.
Although this film is classified as a thriller, there are many details and black humor that involve racial discrimination. Many friends may not have a deep understanding of this aspect, so there is less fun to watch.
Regarding the viewpoint of racial discrimination in this film, I think Lou Zhong @ Crab大ROXIE's explanation can be said to be perfect. Thanks for his authorization, I also posted this passage in the main building for your reference:
It is also a kind of racial discrimination to think that "the only meaning of being black is to be physically strong"! Racial discrimination does not mean that one person is totally useless from head to toe, but that it treats another group differently just because of race. There is also a kind of racial discrimination against Asian girls in the West, called yellow fever. I think that Asian girls are very sexy and hot in bed, but just because they love the body of Asian girls, they keep dating Asian girls, and treat them as precious as they count their prey. This is also a kind of racial discrimination, but it’s a bit deep. Many people think that [strongly praise blacks for physical fitness] or [said that yellow girls are sexy wild cats] is a kind of praise, but it is actually very offensive and very discriminatory. behavior.
PS: There are many wonderful comments and it is worth watching~

I like this movie very much so I watched it twice. Every time the movie theater is full and the atmosphere is warm, everyone enjoys it. Hahaha. Think of which to write which, full of spoilers
Not necessarily right, welcome to discuss.
1. Rose drove when Chris and Rose were together, because Chris had always been shadowed by his mother's death (hit and run), which made him afraid to drive. 2. Regarding the police wanting to check Chris' id but Rose won't let it, everyone must know why. 3. Rose's father, Dean, introduced his grandpa's photo to Chris, saying that he lost to blacks in running at the sports meeting, so grandpa is obsessed with the body of blacks, and still insists on running at night. 4. When Dean introduced the two black people in the family to Chris, he said: we hired them to take care of my parents. After my parents gone, I can't let them go (probably) This sentence sounded like Dad wanted Show your friendliness towards the two black servants in your family, but it actually means literally. 5. When people in town come to have a party, you can see Walter and Georgina greet and hug the guests by the car. Isn't it strange to think about it as a servant? Because they are actually the masters. 6. Georgina (grandma) has been looking in the mirror. On the one hand, she likes her brand new face, and on the other hand, she is concerned about the scars from the surgery on her forehead (this is also the reason why grandpa wears a hat all the time). 7. The golfer emphasizes the couple who like tiger; touches my brother’s chest muscles and asks Rose if he is a black x capable couple; asks my brother the advantages and disadvantages of being an African-american Asian; and my brother Jeremy Subtle jealousy of black physical fitness and so on. These awkward and logical little details are very well designed (of course, Obama hahaha), and after knowing the truth, I feel that the Sith is empty. 8. Rose opened the dark compartment of the photo twice (once Chris went out to smoke at night, once he found the photo at the end). It stands to reason that this dark compartment shouldn't be easily discovered by Chris, it might be Georgina's subconscious mind. I wanted to help Chris, so I opened it. 9. At the end of these photos, Rose can be seen hanging on the wall behind her while eating cereal. It should have been hanging on the wall, but it was rashly put away after Chris was invited. 10.
11. My friend told me a rather suspenseful conjecture, but it was quite interesting: Rose’s photos showed that they had already abducted a lot of black people, but there were only three in the town, so where did the others go? It is possible that Dad used them in animal experiments, such as the deer that can be seen everywhere nearby. Is it possible that the brain of the deer that crashed into the car at the beginning of the film belonged to one of the black people?
12. Speaking of the deer, I think of something... I think that the deer is used by the director to metaphor the black community. The deer appears three times in the film:
1. The hostess killed a deer on his way home. I admire the director very much here, and use a plot to bring out a few key points. 1. The black brother couldn't ignore hit and run due to his childhood experience (so he hit Georgina behind and couldn't leave her) 2. The white policeman searched the body 3. Little brother and deer finally had a long look at each other...
2. After the two went home and talked about the matter, Rose's father said: Deer deserve to die. They are too many and annoying, and one death is counted as one (to the effect). Hearing this little brother and the people in front of the screen are not very comfortable, because father Rose subconsciously divides life into three or six or nine classes, and expresses cold-blooded and cruelty toward species that he thinks are lower than himself. If the "deer" in his words were replaced by "blacks," he would actually speak out a lot of racist aspirations. The white people in this film are all hypocritical, only at this moment the director uses his father's attitude towards deer to expose their hypocritical skin.
3. After being locked in the basement, the little brother looked at the deer head hanging on the wall. Did you see yourself in each other's eyes? In the end, he used the antlers of this deer to fork his father to death (applause), which also represents a kind of resistance to the racist.
