See how Washington differs in 'BlacKkKlansman' vs 'Creed'

Anyone who has seen "BlacKkKlansman" can probably understand why Nolan chose Washington Jr. to star in "Creed". It is said that Nolan made the decision after watching the movie "Black" in 2018. It must be admitted that Washington Jr., as a retired football player and half-way out of the actor star second generation, completed the role of "BlacKkKlansman" amazingly. From the very first shot, the focus and rhythm of the entire play are firmly in control. Restrained, accurate, yet subdued with a sense of humor, the film's reflections and deconstructions of the black civil rights movement are deeply and approachable. He can be a shining actor with a good script and a good director. I highly recommend director Spike lee and this script. It's based on a true story of how a black cop joined the white Ku Klux Klan and went undercover in 1970s America. How is this done? You must be wondering. Hold on, this is just one of the lines of contradiction. In addition to this, the first mission of a black police officer was to spy on black civil rights activities and fell in love with his girlfriend with different political views. A Jewish police officer who was also hated by the Ku Klux Klan and had a vague understanding of his own beliefs also participated in the undercover operation. There are also various people in the KKK and the police station, etc. This is full of contradictions, and it fills up for two hours. Exquisitely laid out and climaxing one after another, it is really a very enjoyable presentation of undercover detective type films. And success doesn't stop there. Telling this black civil rights story in 2018 has very practical significance, and it seems like a prophecy in 2020 today. Director Spike Lee used his superb skills and deep introspection to let me understand the predicament that made black people have to cry, and their own confusion and struggle about how to cry. Empathizing with the audience in a comedic way is very difficult and very advanced. The film won several best screenplay awards and completed Washington's perfect performance. I sincerely hope that Nolan can always polish his script like "The Dark Knight".

    Cannes Film Festival. It is said to be an autobiography of Ron Stallworth, but it still looks awkward, obviously serving politics. The villains are like a group of naive big fools, who managed to organize a substantive damage and destroy themselves. In this film, black people completely identify themselves as victims, and there is no reflection but only accusation. The espionage operation is also full of loopholes. Having grown up watching Infernal Affairs, I cannot accept such an arrangement. The whole film is not as deep as the reality video of the final cut - No space for hate. Differences are always there and conflicts never die. The world will be good.

    The director's control is very strong, the editing and scheduling are top-notch, the atmosphere, scenes, and characters are in retro style. The black girls' explosive heads and round-rimmed glasses are so beautiful. The overall fine and nostalgic workmanship is like watching an old movie in the 60s. Line advancement, parallel montage, a little tension in the humor, but not sloppy, the rhythm is just right, the 3k party gathers to watch "The Birth of a Nation", black college students listen to speeches by civil rights leaders, 3k shooting in the suburbs, burning crosses, etc. Excellent, the Cannes Awards didn't come for nothing, I like it.

BlacKkKlansman quotes

  • [first lines]

    Dr. Kennebrew Beauregard: Hello, my fellow Americans. They say we may have lost the battle but we didn't lose the war. Yes, my friends, we are under attack. You may have read about this in your local newspapers or seen it on the evening news. That's right. We are living in an era marked by the spread of integration and miscegenation. The Brown decision. The Brown decision, forced upon us by the Jewish-controlled puppets on the U.S. Supreme Court, compelling white children to go to school with an inferior race, is the final nail in a coffin, is the final nail in a black coffin towards America becoming a mongrel nation. We had a great way of life. We had a great way of life. We had a great way of life. We had a great way of life until the Martin Luther Coons of this world and their army of Commies started their civil rights assault against our holy white Protestant values. Do you really want your precious white child going to school with Negroes? They're lying, dirty monkeys, stopping at nothing to gain their equality with white men. Rapists, murderers, craving the virgin white, is it "virgin pure"? Rapists, murderers, craving the virgin pure flesh of white women. They are super predators! And the Negro's insidious tactics, under the tutelage of high-ranking, blood-sucking Jews, using an army of outside northern black beast preda... agitators. God, watch this! God! Using an army of outside northern black beast agitators determined to overthrow the God-commanded and biblically inspired rule of the white race. It's an international Jewish conspiracy. May God bless us all.

    Donald J. Trump: [referring to the Charlottesville riots] You had a group on one side that was bad, and you had a group on the other side that was also very violent. Not all of those people were neo-Nazis, believe me. Not all of those people were white supremacists. You also had people that were very fine people.

    David Duke: Because I believe that today in Charlottesville, this is a first step toward making a realization of something that Trump alluded to earlier in the campaign, which is... This is the first step toward taking America back.

    Charlottesville Riot Protestor #1: I had to jump out of the way. I almost got hit by the car my fucking self. There are people, bodies laying on the ground right now.

    Charlottesville Riot Protestor #2: And there was a woman laying there, hardly breathing, and we ended up rolling her over, and she died.

    Charlottesville Riot Protestor #1: This is my town! We did not want them motherfuckers here!
