This A list director does not have any friends who are women of color so it shouldn't come as a shock that she has no idea how to write for women of color. She has always whitewashed much like another famous family member.

My question is so what? I am certain there are plenty of black directors and writers who have no idea how to present white characters as anything other then stereotyped trucker cap wearing racists.
Sophia Coppola obviously the Beguiled is set during the civil war of course there were slaves there. If you watch Coppola films they are VERY WHITE. I think only one the Bling Ring had an Asian character and that actress was not even completely Asian she was half white too.
alas, a lot of white/non-black people don't have black friends. There is a big divide in this country, and it's not really Sophia's fault. But she should try to diversify her films anyway.
Yes, she took the two black slave characters in the book out of the movie. She claimed it was because she didn't want to "diminish the role of slavery". Mmm hmm...okay girl.
Sophia Coppola?
ReplyDeleteShe cut the slave character from Beguiled. Could be true or made up because of this.

ReplyDeleteYou sound like an idiot. And a trucker cap wearing racist.
ReplyDeleteYou sound like a mentally ill SJW. Go crawl back in your safe space. And your thumbs downing of all my posts is totally juvenile. Grow up.
ReplyDeleteA good writer could write for anyone, how hard is it to find out about human experience???/
ReplyDeleteRun along trick, I'm sure they miss you back at Reddit or whatever sewer you crawled out of.

ReplyDeleteFuck off loser. Maybe Donald Trump tweeted something for you to have a nervous breakdown about.
ReplyDeleteThe Bling Ring was based on a true story that just happened to have a Korean and no blacks.
ReplyDeleteShe doesn't live in West Hell. She lives in Hollywood. Not the most isolated place in the world with no diversity.
