If they want to make a politically interesting movie/song, go for it, just leave it at that. |
What's interesting is how these political speeches in recent years seem to have eroded/muddled whether they are talking about society or their trade.
For instance Arquette's equal pay screed. Who was that for? What action was it seeking to initiate? Her industry, from set and crew right on up, not just the stars, is one of the worst in the country for wage inequality. But at least from the box office side, that's just a fiscal reality of meritocracy. But if she's talking about society in general, what was the impetus? I admit I might not be aware of how much Boyhood is about mom's money troubles. But it didn't seem like a message movie until Arquette made it one. It seems like we are entering an era where statements don't have to have gravitas or substance or coherence. Just a set of code words that indicate you are down. Acceptance speech 2016 - "Gay people, single mothers, the homeless, good night . . . " Next day, a wall of buzz about the pressing issues Acceptance Speech brought to prominence. Social media high fives itself endlessly for being down with Acceptance Speech's message. |
The reason people do that is strictly money. They don't actually care about those causes. They're just appealing to a demographic. This is especially true in the case of the MLK movie and the Glory song. It's masterfully executed.
Arquette's speech was especially amusing considering THE MOVIE WAS ABOUT A BOY. |

In fact I'm pretty sure Focus is about to be a huge hit. Granted a large part of that is because of the pretty white woman in it. LMAO |
