Cameron Lee
I thought this film was one of the better ones seen in the class. It had a much more realistic aspect to it and as everything was put together it came out as a real amazing movie. It does a good job of showing the great gap in the relative standings of the white culture versus the black culture. I have to agree with everyone else in that it portrays women in a much lower position than one would like to see, where it pushes them to lose their virginity and just have children despite their beliefs or religion. There would have been drastic changes had the film had it been told from a different point of view. As sad as their situation may be, it would seem that it has been going on in many places for a long time. In this new age one would have hoped it would have died off. Tre's father had the right view on what was really happening in the advice he had given him.
