Every woman of colour working in film would like to tell you to fuck off.



Also maybe white blue collar men aren't represented on screen in Hollywood, but look a little lower down the scale and they have plenty of representation in indie cinema.

Right? What a fucking stupid comment to make.

"Also maybe white blue collar men aren't represented on screen in Hollywood"

What about every movie Mark Wahlberg has ever been in?

[ms_mmelissa]

I don't watch Wahlberg movies though I'm sure you're right. Now that I think about it like every cop movie is like that so I don't even know wtf he is talking about.

Not to mention a loooooooooot of tv shows revolve around white blue collar Americans.

the parkway building is beautiful. i took north ave. home today (which i almost never do) and passed by it. i didn't even know they were building it!

This is OT but what is your icon from?

[gusfring]

idk didnt hell or high water get nominated for best picture? that movie (which i actually liked) was the epitome of white blue collar men struggles

[saintclaire87]

Exactly, he's not a minority. Every avenue is catered to him.

Also Casey Affleck *just* won an Oscar for playing a blue collar worker (janitor) who went through tragedy.

Like ... two months ago.
