That's how Oscar judges view it, I'm pretty sure.  biggrin.gif

But my problem with the movie is that it tries to disguise itself as a "human" movie. That this is life. Racism happens. Racism CAN be justified. (Like how BN GOvernment justifies their racist policy)

But is this movie a genuine portrait of real life? The selections of characters, the scenes, the plotlines (awkwardly contrived if you ask me), they all work towards the white people's perspective.

It's pathetic how we readily see white people as saviors, even to this date. But hey, all our sense (so-called perspective) are nearly controlled by them (TV, movies and musics).

Sad, but true.
