Forget the Oscars, how about the Nobel prizes?
Shouldn’t we award those based on race, and not genius/merit?
Stay tuned!
That happened already.
I’m the kind of guy that wants a movie to keep me on the edge of my seat. If it does that the acting was good. If it doesn’t it wasn’t. In my uneducated opinion, of course. I don’t care about the nuances of who has the most realistic laugh or cry or reaction. If they keep me intrigued moment by moment, then they’re well done, and I couldn’t care less about the nuances.
That standard means that the movies drive the awards, and the black actors/actresses I follow manage to keep me involved the same as anyone else.
But the Hollywood standard is always something ‘meaningful’. Forget that. I’ll take a Patton over a Gandhi once a day and twice on Sundays.
