No doubt with lines like “They only hate Israel because of their religion” and “The IDF is protecting me, despite being Palestinian”
Comment on “This script is fantastic. Let’s get Julia Roberts to play Harriet Tubman.”

It also be “both sides have something to learn from each other!” Oscar bait a la Crash or Green Book.

I was going to suggest that it would be done with lots of tearful emotion, but then I remembered that Gal can’t actually act, so maybe it would be more of a “after saying the words, turning and looking towards the horizon in an heroic pose” medium shot moving into a panorama showing little children in the background.

Ughhhhhhh. Green Book was okay, I liked it, but BlackkKlansman was right there. I shouldn’t be surprised they picked the less punchy of the two, but I’m still annoyed.

The best part of BlackkKlansman was that I watched it with two literal billionaires who most assuredly voted for Trump 3 times. I got to feel their reaction to that ending montage. Thank you for the reminder.

tf is your life lol. That’s crazy. I really hope it made them at least somewhat more empathetic. I don’t think anyone is ever too far gone for change, but I also don’t have much hope that billionaires will change.
