"“I don’t need a 40-year-old white dude to tell me what didn’t work about A Wrinkle in Time,” Larson said. “It wasn’t made for him! I want to know what it meant to women of color, biracial women, to teen women of color.”

“Am I saying I hate white dudes? No, I am not. What I am saying is if you make a movie that is a love letter to women of color, there is an insanely low chance a woman of color will have a chance to see your movie, and review your movie.”


This ... this is what got a bunch of white guys panties all in a bunch. Sigh.​

on one hand i don't like the way she said it. i get that you gotta be provocative to have anything heard but most people just have angry blinders on now and won't even consider the valid point she's making.

for people who preach ~facts don't care about your feelings~ they really are shit at controlling their emotions. so maybe they wouldn't even consider it at all even if she said it better.

Maybe make a movie that is inclusive?
I read the book a few time as a child could care lees about any of that because the story was good.
I read many classics most of Louisa May Alcott's works, secret garden, P&P ect.
Tell your story in a compelling way.
OFC now days i very rarely go see a movie made about any book i actually liked.
