Oh. Interesting. Very interesting. Thanks for explaining.

Your point about the upcoming Hancock is very interesting. The interracial theme in the film as you mentioned, I don’t think it will hurt Will’s star power at all because he is a bigger star than Theron AND he married black and represents. I know these sound like elementary assertions but Will Smith is no sell-out like Taye Diggs or C.Gooding Junior. The film will work well for him, as most of his films do, just because he can act and well, he is Will Smith – gorgeous, talented and seemingly down to earth.

Suffering a great loss causes us to make choices we might not normally make. It makes a lot of sense that those two people choose to be with one another.

@ The Black Actor I will discuss a Canadian film soon to be honest most Canadian movies are drum roll please…. boring and have absolutely nothing to do with black Canadians. I do remember liking the Canadian film “Kissed” with Molly Parker that movie was very controversial one of the few Canadian movies that shocked the world. Clement Virgo he’s a young black Canadian filmmaker I’ve seen a few of his movies. The problem with Canadian cinema is black Canadians are ignored. It is very rare that black Canadian films are even made and they rarely ever receive distribution. The Canadian film industry is too esoteric. Most Canadian films don’t even have solid distribution. Even some Canadians avoid Canadian movies like the plague. The movies tend to get funding from the government and it is basically nepotism very few people get films made unless you’re Sarah Polley and you’re already established.

One thing no one talks about is the miscast of that child. I wrote a post on that last June as I was preparing my blog for launch. I’ve not published it. Maybe I will.

It occurred to me, Orville, that you discuss American cinema. Why not Canadian? What’s their “Hollywood” like? I’m curious, actually.
