Hollywood Gives it up for the White People

Hollywood Gives it up for the White People

You really have to love a voting body, and industry, and BAFTA, and Globe, that takes the only film in the Best Picture lineup with a mostly black cast and gives their shiny toy statue to a white dude.  The two films with black characters at the Oscars were completely shut out — Beasts of the Southern Wild and Flight. Hey Hollywood, you don’t have to shout so loud. We read you, we read you.  Am I angry? Well, doesn’t someone have to be?  There were four great performances in Django Unchained: Christoph Waltz (a lead), Jamie Foxx (a lead) and Samuel L. Jackson (supporting) and Leo DiCaprio (supporting).  Surely either Foxx or Jackson could have gotten, at the very least, a nomination. You know, just a thought.
