From the time of David Griffith — the forefather of American cinema — theme - called blacksploitation rises on the agenda. The Director then, in 1915, took the legendary historical drama "Birth of a nation", which brought the movie to a new level. The public reaction was resonant, the film was banned, criticized, denigrated by hook and by crook. In the end it came to that Griffith was filming his next work "Intolerance" of 1916 as would as a consolation or not even an apology. And subsequently, the film turned into a large genre of art, and the real first blockbuster, Griffith brought millions in profits, some separated by age. Now people read moving pictures, admired the hand-painted flag in the"Battleship "Potemkin"" and the advent of sound in"the jazz Singer". Seriously with the racism and oppression of the African-American race became interested in only after almost a hundred years! Rented a bunch of movies with leaky scenarios, and the delay time, in order to showcase what we now tolerant. And the film spike Lee "all kinds of things over the Black", published in 2018, initially also seemed to be next, boring kintsom. However, when all its intrigue and obvious shortcomings, not be put in a row with the same "Moonlight" or"Hidden figures". Why?
Yes, "all kinds of things over Black" is focused on modern society's problems. Yes, it to times a time when a movie about of African Americans, gays, handicapped people is gaining momentum and removed in the proletarian scale. But not the case when a hot topic greedily solely because of the time. History does not simple but the first black policeman in the office of the city of Colorado springs, Ron Stallworth, taken at the book the hero of events is absolutely clear and clearly explains why racism — this is an evil and ugly phenomenon, which do not should be of modern civilization. The viewer is watching an adventure of Stalwart at the penetration into the ranks of the Ku Klux Klan and internal sabotage mixed with evidence of the film — no joke. It is shown of unrest in society, which, although at times and seem naive and sham, in cheap performance is not flow. Thanks to the introduction of Philip "Flip" Zimmerman, played by Adam Driver, is a life of the collective of the KKK, fearfully referred to as between themselves the Organization. Advocating for white nationalism, members openly and flagrantly hate dirty races, whether African Americans, Jews, Chinese, Irish and everyone else. And this hate acts is so disgusting and cynical that the police are even ready their lives to stop everything. For every scene feels that the investigation may fall in any minute for exposing the Flip or Stalwart, and, perhaps, because of the failure to a manic Felix with his wife or someone else. And it still continues despite the danger. Continues because should not remain such an outrage.
The antithesis to white racists are black racists in the organization "Black Panthers". Aggressive and almost not brought to despair, they are willing to openly be in conflict with power of the white population. It is clear that they prefer the ideas of Malcolm X than Martin Luther king, and will oppose anyone who crossed the road at least once. Only their calls still boil down to equality, they do not require full autocracy of his race, and in General, the vast majority of the members of the "Panthers" — students. It is hardly they understand the fight what I want. Their has infected the speech of personalities like Kwame Toure, that they go to meetings sticks, plugged the nails. That is why the leader of the organization, Patrice Dumas so eager to unleash the potential riots and hates every COP that just inspired by the stereotype of "trash — assholes." But the KKK appears to be a full-fledged organization, almost occult, with their leaders and branches people in government, and that most importantly, an army of like-minded people. So it in principle, is. But in the film the KKK recursively empties himself because its existence is not here makes sense. Take a look at the organization — almost nobody shows a man with a real idea in mind. And only Walter Brechfa, in fact, has the motivation to fight blacks, so how those brutally raped his wife. All others spit "great" ideas about the superiority of the white race, about the true American population. Only here they forget that that the indigenous population of the United States — it is the Indians who systematically slaughtered the General Lee him like that. And you, the members of the clan who want — Spaniards, Italians, Germans — but not true Americans. And the Declaration of independence, which the boasted heroes of the picture, was not signed with the aim to deify something, and to release from the UK. They don't remember were there are African Americans who have attained comparable and greater heights than white. Only to that time (the story takes place in the 1970s) the world I know people like Jesse Owens, Muhammad Ali, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, will Chamberlain, Sidney Poitier, Louis Armstrong, ray Charles, Otis Redding and thousands of others. Yes, the history of the Ron Stallworth — direct proof, Evo he cheat on a couple a Jew Zimmerman a whole branch of the KKK! Thus, lanovtsy appear common criminals who foment violence for the sake of violence. Not better and "Black Panthers", but at least they can be understood, albeit kind of distant. The main moral of the film is reduced to that violence any nationalism is meaningless.
Of course, watching very carefully, so as the tendency of Hollywood to make a movie about the minority sign anyone interested in modern Hollywood. But when you can see that the creators were trying to convey the importance of the problem, and not dully filled her contact with movie impossible to believe. When a clear artistic assumptions of the authors, sometimes showing blatant nonsense or boring politics, with a bad installation where the bonding between the events of a chess knight jump, if not the most appropriate soundtrack and in a strange approach to consider the film a Comedy, "Black all kinds of things over" really takes the idea, but doesn't work with slogan. To the way, the rare humor still present the place was fooled by the same clan. Nomination on"Oscar-2019" not looks forsirovanno, and project on a penny budget in 15 million dollars, not seem cut off. However, for major Academy awards the film is damp, to recall the "In the spotlight" (Oscar-2015) with no less poignant social drama. However, the world saw the awarding of the "Moon light", so that surprised the possible reward of the work of spike Lee, who has long been out prizes catwalk, and then suddenly grabbed awards from the AIC at the Cannes film festival, not necessary.
