not to me. she just sounded like someone who didn't like the movie.
?if she didn't like the flick, she >didn't like it, but don't act like every black movie has to >represent every black person in America.
she didn't say that, and she wasn't acting like that. what she was complaining about--and she stated this clearly--was the belief that movies like Hustle & Flow are somehow "real" when they don't represent anything like the lives of a lot of black people.
>It was like she got >personally offended that they would portray black folks like >that when in reality there are people who are living just like >the characters in Hustle and Flow......
disagree. she didn't seem personally offened. she seemed like an adult with valid criticisms of a film.
