I definitely would watch the original French version of Cinderella. That sounds cool. She becomes a princess by slipping her dainty foot into a bloody shoe: so deeply and subversively symbolic of an anti-monarchical culture where Kings and Queens get anointed by having royal blood. Far better than watching little birds slave away for Cinderella. (LOL)
But seriously, I was watching a brief clip where they showed MLK speaking. What I found “magnetic” about his presentation of self was his profound dignity with which he carried himself; his deliberate pensive way of talking in interviewers, that made the listener reflect on his answers by giving him time; the profound moral message that displayed the hard fought and important values he must have contemplated beforehand. Was it the color of his skin that made him great or the inner truths and his deepest belief that the inalienable rights promised to all,should be respected and practiced by all, not repressed by a few white men who deserved to rule because of magic blood. Thus if he was played with comport and elegance by a white man, it could work as a film, as long as we can sense the values he had. I don’t think that would happen, and Selma was already a fantastic representation of him and his struggle, but I’m just saying.

It is thus interesting no one mentions the new “black” little mermaids outstanding singing voice. Maybe that’s way she was chosen, for her talent voice she trained herself on and her sorrowful expressions of longing she mastered as an actor. Immediately, the “woke” right wing commentators are making people react to a born appearance and not a practiced and earned talent, which this actress surely has. For me, it is like watching “woke” Ted Cruz questioning Justice Brown Jackson, focus not her advanced abilities but on her skin color, her birth, by bringing out a children’s book and trying to demean her by making her comment of the depiction of a black baby.
I’m obviously still upset about that one, though in hindsight it reflects poorly on him and only amplifies her learning and earned skills while portraying him as a vicious and base attacker who wastes his education by depending on his skin color giving him magic powers to look better than her. Instead, he looks pathetic, much like the commentators on the little mermaid. I feel sorry for them, as they are unable to appreciate the gifts and joys brought on by talented dedicated professionals, whether in law or in film.

Thanks much again.
