After watching this movie, the editor's mood could not be calm for a long time. The film's theme is undoubtedly racism, and the use of blacks as containers for white minds is terrifying. Even under Obama, the rights of blacks were not 100 percent protected, and racial discrimination persisted, just in a different form.
