Saw the screening of Table 19 Greg Robinson plays a 'cold fish' brother to his wife played by Lisa Kudrow.

I never noticed it and I saw the screening of La La Land months back.

I saw a film on Netflix called Brazilian Western. It is a story set in the 80's. It's not a western, per se, but like a western, there are themes of redemption and revenge. It was like City Of God meets Kill Bill with an interracial couple as the main characters.

I have never heard that a black guy was up for the role. They named several other white guys that turned it down.

Stumble across this film the other day, of course a foreign film though
Natt til 17 (Not til 17) or One Night in Oslo
One Night In Oslo is about the two 15-year old best friends Sam and Amir, and how their friendship is put to the test during a spring night in Oslo. Amir wants to get his ex-girlfriend back, only to realize she is now seeing his best friend Sam.

The lead actress in this has a starring role in the upcoming HBO series Mogadishu, Minnesota, its a drama about a Somali family living in Minneapolis so maybe more IR romance in her future.

I had to chuckle at the premise of the article because there's plenty of black folks who think there's too many IR couples in TV/Film.

Gunpowder & Sky Distribution has set Rob Meyer’s “Little Boxes” for a theatrical and on demand release for April 14th. Written by Annie J. Howell, “Little Boxes” stars Melanie Lynskey (“Togetherness”), Nelsan Ellis (“Get on Up”), Armani Jackson (“The Last Witch Hunter”), Oona Laurence (Broadway’s “Matilda”), and Janeane Garofalo.

Story: It’s the summer before 6th grade, and Clark (Jackson) is the new biracial kid in a very white town. Discovering that to be cool he needs to act “more black,” he fumbles to meet expectations. Meanwhile, his urban intellectual parents Mack (Ellis) and Gina (Lynskey) try to adjust to small-town living. Accustomed to life in New York, the tight-knit family is ill-prepared for the drastically different set of obstacles that their new community presents. They soon find themselves struggling to understand themselves and each other in this new context.

“’Little Boxes’ is as heartwarming as it is timely,” said Gunpowder & Sky Distribution’s Jake Hanly. “Rob unpacked a very complex issue in a way any audience can understand and relate to.”

Director Rob Meyer added, “It’s a thrill and an honor to team up with Gunpowder & Sky Distribution for the theatrical and VOD release. They distribute the kind of movies that I want to watch.” Producer Jared Ian Goldman added, “The Gunpowder & Sky team love the heart, humor and commentary of ‘Little Boxes’ as much as those of us who made it. They understand the timeliness and nuance to the mix-ups, misunderstandings, and stereotyping that the story utilizes so successfully.”

The film premiered at the 2016 Tribeca Film Festival, where it received a warm reception from critics.

“Little Boxes” was produced by Ken H. Keller, Caron Rudner, Jordan Horowitz, and Jared Ian Goldman, the latter of which also produced Jeff Nichols’ “Loving.” The film was executive produced by Cary Joji Fukunaga, Wyatt Gatling, Marc H. Simon, Gary Gilbert, and Rose Troche.

The deal with Gunpowder & Sky Distribution was negotiated by UTA on behalf of the filmmakers.

A first trailer for “Little Boxes” premiered this evening and is embedded below:

If you guys are going to jump ahead and list films that haven't come out yet (such as "About Alex").....


Shelter - Anthony Mackie and Jennifer Connelly

Alex of Venice - Derek Luke and May Elizabeth Winstead

Z for Zachariah - Chiwetel Ejiofor and Margot Robbie

The Secret In Their Eyes - Chiwetel Ejiofor and Nicole Kidman

5 Flights Up - Morgan Freeman and Diane Keaton

Happy People - Keith Stanfield and Dree Hemingway

Triple 9 - Chiwetel Ejiofor and Gal Gadot

Love the Coopers - I believe Anthony Mackie and Olivia Wilde (but not completely certain as of now)

It looks like that "Happy People" movie was renamed "Live Cargo". It debuted at the Tribeca Film Festival back in April, but it still hasn't got a limited theatrical release date or Trailer yet. Here is an interview with the 2 leads from the Tribeca Film Festival:

A trailer finally dropped for "Live Cargo" a few days ago:

I like how most of the pictures and most of the IR he talked about was between white men and black men, but continued to make not of the coupling of
black men and white women. Good piece, but he missed some things.
