      That seems like a good idea. Make a movie about black and white characters who learn nothing and don't change whatsoever. I'd hate to read your screenplays brother man. It's still a realistic portrayal of a character. He's still got a long, long way to go.

      No ones fucking arguing for black and white static. What im saying is its unearned. He starts becoming not an abominable racist sexist asshole because someone writes him a letter about being a detective.

      Someone? You mean his father figure? His father figure who writes him a letter, which he reads after coming face to face with a man he threw out a window who he brutally injured, who still treats him with kindness? Did you take a nap during the middle?

      Or are you taking this weirdly personally because you love movies that are designed to make white people feel better about racism?

      And haha I was so waiting for you to insinuate that. I liked a movie about fucked up white people. Yes, secretly I love it because deep down I'm super racist. Definitely not because I'm not so lazy I just want to label people with bad beliefs the enemy and just move on.

      No. You're not. What im saying is there's something super alluring about movies that are designed to make us feel better about it. I get caught in it too. And it's dangerous.

      I just don't understand how this movie is supposed to make you feel better about it? It's clear that he's basically the villain of this movie. I hated feeling sorry for him. But it made me realize how human even racists are. It comes from somewhere.

      You just answered your own question. this is why people were so furious at the NYT nazi piece. Of course they're human. OF COURSE it comes from somewhere. The only question is then what?

      The way the movie handles it is to meet his ignorance with kindness and purpose. And it's still not clear his learned his lesson. I know it's easier to write people off, trust me I'd rather do that. But we won't move forward with that us vs. them logic. It just divides us more.

      That's why I feel so strongly about this. If you write off a great movie because of a perceived redemption arc of a racist that's part of the problem. If we don't understand where it comes from, we'll never be able to fix anything. This film digs deep into people's quiet rage.

      I also don't think it's a great movie on the base execution level, but that's a whole other argument. And i agree with what you just said. I just think that insight has nothing to do with what's actually in this film.

          I think it's all there. Theres so much depth. Idk what else to say. Me on Twitter isn't going to change any hearts and minds. I apologize if at any point I was uncivil. It's the best film I've seen in a long time. I'm sorry if people don't feel the same, I think they missed out.
