The other social economic issues were more important to me, but I understand. It's still a very good movie with a lot of problems
Spoiler: Semi spoiler territory i cant blame dude for being hesitant and lord knows I experienced something like that when I was his age. My first girlfriend wanted to be together but her idea of together and mine weren't the same. I wanted that physical relationship, she just wanted to hang out, mostly with her family. The chick in the movie, seemed to want it but did she seem to want it because of the cameras, and homeboy didn't want his business in the street
If she is living underneath my roof and claiming to be my girlfriend then she had better find her way upstairs to my bedroom if I am that guy in the movie. It saddened me that they never got any alone time in his room even if it was just to do homework. The natural development of that couple was obvious to all . . . but when it's an interracial teen couple they rarely seem to get those plausible scenario scenes. If it's a White teen couple though or if the guy is White then it's "13 Reasons Why" level content right. I know this was an adaptation from a book but still . . . I was left frustrated that the movie went so off track unforeseeably so. The White actress was quite cute and I thought they had great chemistry for a teen interracial couple.
Zoe Chao is half Irish/English. Also, I just watched this movie and I thought it was great. Whimsical rom-com with some touching moments and frank dialogue about sex and romance. They had tremendous chemistry as well. I recommend it.
There is a movie called Country Hearts starring wrestler Chris Jericho that came out a few days ago on UPTV, and a Black man is the old flame of one of the daughters.
I saw that when it was released with the four other nominations at the theaters for a couple of weeks. Did not like it at all.
If anyone didn't get a chance to see this. VERY good movie. I recommend. It was underrated to mainstream of course.
I rented it months ago . . . @darkcurry Spoiler what could that woman had possibly thought was the potential upside to rolling the dice on carrying a baby to term that reasonably could be BLACK and quite obviously not fathered by her WHITE husband?!? For the life of me please make it make sense . . . Chevalier desperately wanted to run away with her whilst she was pregnant with his potential child but she adamantly refused his fervent wishes. She killed their baby as much as her husband did in my opinion
I rewatched Starship Troopers (1997), and I noticed that Dizzy (Dina Meyer) danced briefly with a Black dude during a party after the Roughnecks kill a large alien bug.
Well it's mid-November. Do we have a list of new TV & streaming IR Holiday films like we've had the last couple years?
Nope both Hallmark and Lifetime went back to segregated programming. All that fake good will after George Floyd's murder is over I guess.
LOL! Even before George Floyd made Hollywood go all-in on forcing DEI casting, they always managed to put out at least 1 IR holiday romcom film. You telling me there isn't 1 new TV or streaming service IR holiday romcom film dropping this Holiday? @Young Herschel Are you aware of any?
