Jeffrey Wright is one of those actors where every single role is mesmerizing, the man just has a quality to him that demands attention to each nuanced gesture and word.
This movie is theatrical art and Oscar worthy, not like the make believe superheroes hanging from cables next to green screens. This is true art imitating life.
There's a reason why the media didn't push the "Oscars So White" controversy this year even though most of the winners were white. They don't want to draw any attention to this movie.
Low key I was hoping to see more scenes like these from Monk's fake book. Especially when he's interacting with his characters. Also, his MC looks like a pirate, I wonder if Monk was still grappling with his mythology fantasy and still wants to input that in his characters...probably not but still fun to wonder.
This scene reminds me of the writers block bit from Spike Jonze’s Adaptation, simply in its way of depicting the writing process through entering the author’s headspace.
The real situation that shows itself is what people are not sure how to state the facts of our shortcomings as a society on the wrongs that are not being addressed, and say how shameful all of this really is. the point at hand is to let you do the right thing from this moment forward. we have to know that it must not continue.
@@Ben-pd2bx no I think they need to do way more reporting on racism. I even saw a front page story a few weeks ago that didn’t talk about race. Shame on NYT!
@@comitatus Again, this is a director talking about a scene in his movie that is currently nominated for Best Picture. To boil that down to "talking about racism" is, and I mean no offense, genuinely stupid.
@@comitatus You're absolutely right. To avoid coverage that is adjacent to anything to do with race, the NYT should stop reporting on Oscar nominated movies.

If this isn’t about superheroes, then why is the president of Rick and Morty here? 🤔
It reminds me of Spike Lee's Bamboozled.
Big time, surprised nobody actually references it in the movie.
"Hey this is like in Bamboozled." 🤣
I’ve been saying this since I watched the movies and you’re the first person who mentioned it
I'm getting "I'm Gonna Get You Sucka" vibes. Keenan Ivory Wayans movie from the late 80s.

I loved this seen because I write a little bit and this is how I build my characters in my head and bring them alive

Movie was way underappreciated and underrated

This plot reminds me of the lives Roland Fryer and Thomas Sowell
Such an amazing film.
This movie is so beautiful in so many ways.
I thought this idea worked and had a Woody Allen aspect breaking down the walls.
Brilliant writing for this movie ❤

Irrelevant comment, don't you think? Since the video is about a fictional movie.
Stereotypes exist because the stereotyped keep them alive
Nope
@@Norsilca He's not wrong
@@IonizedComa He very much is
@@Norsilca Do you think the smart Asian stereotype would still be here today if they didn't dominate STEM fields?😂
@@IonizedComa So glad you brought up Asians. A century ago their stereotype was primitives with mystical powers.

Oh wow a NYT video about racism. How novel!
Should they... not be featuring this movie which is nominated for Best Picture at the Oscars... or something?

@@Ben-pd2bx true this has nothing to do with racism. Good point.
