Black or White

I enjoyed this movie. I like films that
deal with real-life situations and problems.
This one had a lot of emotions that felt "real" to me - and
nobody was perfect - far from it! Who's
to say what's right, really? Should a
little girl who lost her mother and now her grandmother be with her drinking
grandfather who has helped raise her since birth, or with her real father who
is fighting his own demons, or even with her grandmother on the other side just
so she can be raised by a black family, since she is half black? Also, how much of a say should the girl have
in who raises her? The movie was
definitely about race in many aspects, but I felt like it was actually more
about trying to get past all of that and doing what is right for everyone
involved. It got pretty real when
everyone started looking at themselves in the mirror and facing up to their own
thoughts and prejudices, even if they felt like they had reason to feel that
way. Some may not be impressed with this
movie, but I sure was.
