The most beautiful films about racism

Rating: 8/10 (16 March 2019)

If I was not white enough. If I was not black enough, tell me who I am!.
This sentence that comes in the middle of the film almost embodies the content of the entire film.
I was reluctant to watch this film first, because the American director Peter Farrelly, one of the directors specialized in the manufacture of light comedy. There is an implicit fear of a distinguished director in the humor industry that would be able to make a biographical, dramatic film. But what I saw was truly amazing. Farley has outdone himself here.
For the first time, I see a highly professional film dealing with a recurring issue in American cinema, the issue of racism that America had more than 50 years ago. A very clever dramatic adaptation of the famous pianist Donald Shirley and his relationship with his white driver Tony Lip, who in turn had a somewhat racist view of black, but who, as a result of his need to work, agreed to become a driver for Shirley.
On a long journey towards the southern cities, Shirley plays for the white class, when it feels the importance of its culture when it listens to a genius. the story of the different style begins between the two people in a very sophisticated manner, especially from Mahershala as Shirley.
Interesting dialogues, cultural backgrounds, and dramatic development by influencing the other. Explains the racist concepts of circulation.
