I agree with you: the bathroom scene is the best, so powerful, the script, the scene, the performances and the emotional factor in that sequence...marvelous. We all like to see movies about a minority because they tend to highlight the injustices that some have had to go through and that we hope will not happen again and in this case we're talking about a doubly minority group since they were underestimated both for their gender and for their color of skin. These types of stories serve to understand others and to stand up against the injustices and ill-treatment that no one should receive.
Thank you for sharing.
Yeah, I agree they help to raise awareness of these kinds of situations. The problem is that most people feel these kinds of emotions only for a short time after the movie and then they tend to forget it... usually, if you have not been a victim of this kind of thing yourself, even slightly, you usually tend to not be too involved yourself...
That is sadly true, how can we add those people to our cause, to this awareness? I mean, those who haven't suffer this kind of treatment, which would be an effective way for them to feel commited with this?
that's a very good question... I think the best way is to expose them to the experience of people that have suffered this kind of reality, even to simply talk with them and get to know this kind of issue and problem, to know their story... I don't know if this is enough but at least it is a beginning
More information on a problem brings more awareness
