I think it’s awful how long it’s taken to get to where we are, and there’s certainly a lot more room for change, but you can’t tell me that if Peele or Coogler dropped tickets for a movie tomorrow there wouldn’t be just as much hype.
I do wish white cinephiles had the same energy for BIPOC filmmakers that they have for Christopher Nolan. This isn’t a knock on Nolan’s talent before yall come for me but yall will move mountains for just the *ticket* to the Odyssey but can’t be bothered to mention a film by a BIPOC artist.
