My black co-worker asked me today to reccomend him a white people movie, and he’d give me a black people movie.

At first I reccomended Live Die Repeat (also known as Edge of Tomorrow) then remembered Wes Anderson exists and said anything by him maybe.

He reccomended Salt and The Tourist. I intend to watch them on the weekend.

    The whitest film I’ve ever seen is Christopher Guest’s Best in Show (2000).

    I don’t think you can outdo John Singleton’s Boyz N the Hood (1991), but I think the most universally agreed upon movie that black people enjoy is actually Love and Basketball (2000).

          The folk music in A Mighty Wind may be greater than the Swans’ screen time. And that music is extremely white.

          But the meltdown over Busy Bee can definitely count for double.
