Comes out tomorrow.
Quote : | "Imagine a world in which humorous, sharp conversations about race and identity could be had where multiple perspectives are represented—and many of the participants make good points.
That sort of idyllic communication propels Justin Simien's Dear White People, which won the Special Jury Prize for Breakthrough Talent earlier this year at Sundance and opens Friday in theaters. Set at a fictional Ivy League school, the movie focuses on Sam (Tessa Thompson), whose campus radio show, Dear White People, expresses her frustrations with campus racial politics ("Dear white people: Please stop touching my hair. Does this look like a petting zoo to you?"). Sam is but one character in the ensemble cast that skewers the identities people take on in the name of assimilation and revolution. It all leads up to a racist Halloween party," |

Despite the name, I get the sense this movie is not actually for white people. 10/18/2014 12:14:58 AM |

The Netflix series is better than the movie by far
Also I think it’s better than Master of None almost across the board 5/29/2018 8:51:51 PM |

Kimmy Schmit, Arrested Development, and Handmaids Tale are all new this last week or so but I'm finding myself binge this instead. Took me by surprise. 6/4/2018 8:47:22 AM |
