Regarding Boots Riley's comments on Blackkklansman, do you think it matters that many important plot points were invented for the film?

In many ways BlacKkKlansman reminds me of I, Tonya, which was also based on a true story but also invented aspects of their plot.

Imagine seeing the end of Blindspotting and thinking it would play out as more emotionally resonant without the rap. People in my theater were gasping in full-body sobs at that moment.

It actually gets into a very interesting argument about how and why people absorb tension in a movie, of which I don't think one is more "right" than the other.

"Writing something out so often helps you see that you can be wrong" I have come across this more times than I can count. Even for something as simple as a Facebook post or a Tweet.

Not 100% related to your article, but god am I so fucking tired of the "white pseudo-director/critic" archetype who automatically dislikes "mainstream" movies to praises little indie films. And through that bias, their refusal to analyze a "popular" film like any other art house

Loved the column and Blindspotting of all is the one that stuck with me the most because of the collin/miles dynamic (havent seek BK). But the three Ive seen were all fantastic in their own way. Thanks for once again helping me articulate my feelings.

This was the first time I read one of your pieces and yelled “Oh Fuck You” out loud. Not at you. At you know who.

The “too on the nose” comments regarding why BlacKkKlansmen isn’t as good as it could be are what get me the most.
