For Colored Girls.

What a very thought-provoking movie. But what I don't understand is why some people are saying that this movie is bashing black men. My first thought was that well, the movie simply isn't about black men at all. It's about the different colors in the original play that every woman has or should not have experienced, and where the women have gone from there. You can't speak for every man if you believe a good man exists, however few in number you want to believe is out there too. And what about Hill Harper's character? He didn't rape, kill, or leave a number of women disillusioned and forced to believe that this reality is their faults. So let's take the movie for what it is, not from the critics. Another part of me is saying that I wouldn't be surprised if someone walked away with an Academy Award either...Monique did it for portraying Mary Jones, and Halle before her....but I can't really fully believe that since Jennifer Hudson won for portraying Effie White. Take a closer look at what roles black actors and actresses are being awarded. Then ask yourself.....does Kimberly Elise get one? Loretta Devine? Anika Noni Rose? Thandie Newton? Ask yourself....what is the movie really about? Just some thoughts for you to ponder.
