Random Thoughts: Movies


According to the movie world, the best and critically-acclaimed films in the Black genre are either about: Slavery, Tragedy, the Poor and Service folks.

If you look at the best films in the Gay movie genre, you have stories about: HIV/AIDS, Closeted, Death, Loss and Despair.

Basically, that's what Hollywood views as the 'Best' parts of my life to talk about... sigh.

Maybe, though, those are the most compelling stories?

Those may be the subjects but the stories are actually about educations, the struggle, the people and the triumphs.

why are you letting Hollywood, of all places/entities, define you?

good thing you're writing screenplays!

nothing is more powerful for these hollywood critics than despair and death that leave a "powerful message" for others.

It's pathetic
