Hi, Hallmark. This is nothing against diversity. I notice that many movies have the default mode of all white casts that are straight and those movies are considered normal. In other words they just call it a movie. They give no second thought to it. People are trained to accept it that way, because any other way comes with a label. There’s nothing wrong with an all white straight movie being considered normal. Hopefully they won’t always be considered the only conservative movies. It would be nice to have a movie all mixed and straight, with a black man successfully married to a white woman, and consider it normal and unlabled, because there are many out there in real life. There shouldn’t be a requirement for a black to be gay or have a gay person in a movie with them, just as a gay person might ask that all gay people be in an unlabled movie without the requirement of a straight person being alongside them, to go along with all the movies you already have. The label I’m referring to is ‘diverse representation’. I appreciate your time and allowing me to post.
In the veil trilogy I think Ms Chabert is past her prime,and I would hope that Ms. Reeser get more time in front of the camera.
Just my humble opinion.
Thank you for allowing me to comment.
