Grayson, I'll say this. You are BLESSED to have missed that. Unless you're a fan of bad porn, because that was its only attraction. Paid five bucks to rent the video, and slept through everything except that (only because the noise woke me). If all the world's a stage and all the people

I didn't like Monster's Ball for lots of reasons. As a black man, i had no desire to see a movie in which one black man is on death row, a young black boy is verbally abused and encounters major horrors, and white bigots get to have sex with black women. I felt the sex scene with Berry and

Just weighing in on Mr Worf's to say that sure black women hook up with rednecks, but why does it take that much analyzing? The disrespect many black men show women is no different in my opinion than some racist redneck, if you've accepted that men are going to treat you like trash... what's
