We get, instead, complicated views of Black women, from generations of resistance (Perfidia's lineage) to rest seekers (Deandrea and the sisterhood) to isolation and absence (Willa with Bob). Sometimes, the introduction can be so hard for some that it overpowers the balance. That's my opinion.

That's the thing. Black actresses aren't cast in auteur films. You don't see them in Coppola, Scorsese, the Andersons, Nolan, etc. When we're introduced to Teyana and JunglePussy, it's a big entrance -- loud and bombastic -- that triggers the stereotype right away. However, the film pushes away.

Here’s how to create a contest-winning Halloween costume There is an artistry to a good costume. The combination of whimsy and vulnerability necessary for a grown adult to commit to a public game of dress up with an outfit inevitably revealing a glimpse …

The Smashing Machine, Hedda, It Was Just An Accident, If I Had Legs I'd Kick You

"Inherent Vice" had outlandish characters that were amped-up stereotypes that I was ready to see this again in OBAA. I don't think it's bad here as far as portraying Black women when there's a balance between one extreme (Teyana and JunglePussy) and another (Regina, Chase and the sisterhood).

There has been a sense of "otherness" around the billing and marketing of OBAA that I felt that the Black women were an afterthought before I saw this. Regina, Teyana and Chase were interviewed separately or in their group. As for the film, their characters aligned more with what I expected. (1/2)

Watched "One Battle After Another" last night, and the hype is real. Warner Bros.has some good hits this year with this and"Sinners." The cat-and-mouse chase is redefined here. I also ran into one of my dance friends at this advance screening, and of course we had to do a dance pose.

CBS News is giving up the power it has to hold “Face the Nation” interviewees to account. Following pressure from Trump, it has agreed not to edit interviews, even to remove false statements or propaganda uttered by political operatives and officials, or add explanatory context.
