Dear White People

Checked out this study of race relations between four or five different characters on a college campus. It’s interesting, passingly funny and is trying to make intelligent points. I kind of came away from it feeling a little cold though despite some good performances and messaging. The movie was a little on point/obvious at certain times when I think subtly would have worked better but also because the end message seemed very mixed. Maybe that was intentional – the point that these things aren’t (ahem) simply black and white. If that was the goal, kudos. If it was meant to be more direct, then it failed for me.

Score: 76
