Yesterday I wrote that Timothée Chalamet should’ve won the #Oscar last year for A Complete Unknown. I put my head on the pillow last night & woke up this morning and realized how wrong I was. Colman Domingo moved mountains in Sing Sing last year. This man - not Chalamet, not Brody- deserved the award.
Sing Sing deserves to be seen by many more people. If you haven’t had an opportunity to see this film, you should try to watch. I cried my ass off because this is a film that reminds us all that art & self expression can help save a person’s life. These are the sort of stories & performances that stay with you forever.
@FaatiTheStreet As a Samoan whose dad grew up on Oahu, Hawaiians are Hawaiians. Don’t bring the racism of my ancestors who put their light skin on a pedestal to the forefront of this discussion. The Polynesian community deserves better. Every poly skin color variation is beautiful.
