Movies from comedy to drama to your favorite Hollyweird Star.

One reviewer referred to this as . . .

slave porn and partly for those reasons I didn't want to see it. I don't think I said anything controversial. The Academy has a long history of rewarding "social causes" over art and craft. How 'Gravity' got all those awards is beyond me since it was mostly digital.

One other thing: Who fact checked Northurp's book before it was published? Harriet Beecher Stowe? Point is we see so many films in our lifetimes that are attributed to the experiences of one person when we don't know what really happened. Eg. 'Django' gave an accurate portrayal of slavery because somebody knew someone whose great, great grand daddy lived it. See? If it sells, produce it. This goes for anything.

I really wish film makers would concentrate on promoting harmony not discord.
