        this is a conspiracy to take away the success of the movie. He was found not guilty. Why even talk about it. Let him move on.

        the history re-write isn't going well? Maybe because it's just a vehicle for race baiting and division

        @tawlglass here's a controversy. How can a movie be an "Oscar contender" two months before it's released?

        Cloaked in GREED is more like it, but no mystery. The film is a glaring example of revisionist history combined with reverse-racism

        This is the main reason why no one takes the Oscars seriously anymore.
