Judge J - only just seen this film and that was on a plane, before then I had never even heard of its existence. After being hugely impressed with it it dawned on me that how comes a movie buff like me not to mention a Denzil admirer like me hadn't heard of this film until now yet props, trailers and plaudits for the film American Gangster where all over the place.
This film should definitely be seen by the masses, does anyone know whether it was in the cinema's here or is it even on DVD to raas.
Loved the entire concept of the art of debate where you can both defend and attack the same subject and defeat your opponent either way leaving you to ask the question what is your real overall perspective on the subject. As a person who works at extremes I find I'm as good as I am bad and can defend white as much as I can defend black and attack both just as equally which brings home the truth that your ultimate opinion is where your heart is.
It kind of reminded me of this site where I said wouldn't it be nice for people to debate instead of defend their predicament, an objective discussion on babymotherism came to mind
As mentioned already, if you haven't seen this film yet it is highly recommended but yeah for real JJ, asks them same old age old questions about why films of non-whites advancing themselves never make the limelight.
The Denzil/Whittaker combo was well hard. For all that is said about the chase for the American dream I have to big up Denzil and those off the Spike Lee bandwagon who have now gone on to direct and produce their own films geared towards African edutainment. Excellent flick.
