Not hard considering it’s only one film away from Budapest

I’m literally echoing the talking points of a woman of color film critic who thinks what you’re articulating is what’s actually reductive. I never said a black cast member equals telling “black stories”. I was referring to arguments the same people who critique his films for being “too white” have made. I can tell you’re a very obnoxious person since you were immediately hostile to a different position. You’re essentially ranting out mainstream media critique nonsense that manifests out of the hot take economy. These aren't real people with real grievances, they writers with a brand maintaining their brand. He’s an artist and can do whatever he wants with his films, get over it. To insist he do something different and then expect those choices when done to not come off as cynically deployed to please critics is just not wanting authentic art. You want artists to create works that reflect the world as you want it to look rather than from their vision with the people they choose to work with. What exactly does doing what you’re stating is a valid concern even accomplish. Oh wow more variations of people in an exploitive industry propping up white artists. If you need to see yourself reflected on screen to relate, connect, or empathize to a fictional character I think that’s kinda sad but that’s a whole other conversation. What a bizarre solution to this kind of problem. Attacking individual artists for systemic issues is simply swinging at shadows. Regardless like I already said he has plenty of diversity in his films already so it was a dumb criticism to begin with. I’m tired of debating this horseshit.

Crazy stacked casts is kind of becoming a trend. Don't Look Up, Knives Out sequel, even French Dispatch, maybe some other stuff I'm forgetting.

I feel like these days actors will jump at the opportunity to work with an established directors on anything that's not some blockbuster popcorn s*** (though some might argue Knives Out is blockbuster popcorn s***).

One of the few perks of the current state of film.
