Chapter 50: Hopeless

　　 On a very ordinary weekend, Owen and Bill walked into the theater and bought two tickets for the "Human Removal Project".
　　 came to the not-so-large theater. Due to their taller stature, the two of them went straight to the last row with more legroom and sat in the middle position.
　　 People came in one after another. Bill threw popcorn in his mouth one by one. Owen was a little bored, looking around, scratching his head strangely as the number of people in the theater increased.
　　 "It's weird today," he muttered.
　　 Bill swallowed his mouthful of popcorn and asked, "How to pull it?"
　　 Owen nodded forward with his chin: "I feel so black."
　　 Bill stopped tossing popcorn, looked forward for a while, and said, "There are fewer whites."
This reminded Owen that he was idle and bored before the movie started. He watched it carefully and said, "I used to watch movies and there were white people everywhere. What happened today? Look there, there are many black people. You watch again. Over there, I have never seen so many Arabs. Oh, there are Asians..."
　　 Bill shrugged and continued to deal with popcorn: "It doesn't matter to him, it has nothing to do with us."
　　 Owen nodded, but he was still wondering. When I went to any movie theater before, the audience was basically white, but there are very few whites in this place, just over a third?
　　 The ceiling light goes out and the movie begins. Irving no longer thinks about it, and concentrates on watching the movie.
　　 Los Angeles, an ordinary theater in North Hollywood.
　　 Ronan sat in the last row, waiting for the movie to start.
　　 This film has limited publicity investment, and there is no premiere at all. Lionsgate’s bombing of commercials during the midnight hours of the TV station in the last week before the screening is the largest single publicity investment.
　　 As a producer, Ronan bought tickets to the theater and contributed a box office.
　　 Since it is Friday night, there are not too many people in the theater. Although Halloween is still a week away, the bonus effect of Halloween on horror movies is quite obvious.
　　 Before turning off the lights, he took a closer look. At least 30 people sat in the hundreds of seats in the cinema.
　　 Among them, whites are only in their early tenths, and most of them are ethnic minorities.
　　 I hope that these minorities like to see the whites as a family.
　　 The film began to show. Ronan watched it for 30 minutes. No one left early. This is a good sign.
　　 As long as you don’t leave the show 30 minutes before watching a film, the audience will basically see the end of the show, and the film has some merits in their eyes.
　　 Among the several horror films released on the same weekend, "Human Removal Project" is not the most expensive, but it is not the lowest.
　　 As long as the current attendance rate can be maintained, the box office will not be bad.
　　Chicago, a screening of "Human Removal Project" has come to an end.
　　 Jonathan Rosenbaum from the "Chicago Reader" folded his hands on the chair and stared at the screen closely, seeming to be completely attracted by the movie.
　　 As a well-known film critic who is struggling on the front line, it is a must to go to the new movies every weekend. He came to the theater tonight, just when the "Human Removal Project" was about to start, he also entered this theater.
　　 Anyway, Jonathan has to watch the new film that starts this week.
　　 Unlike ordinary film critics, he has served as a film critic for the Chicago Reader for 10 years. In addition to the film itself, Jonathan also pays attention to cultural, social, political and historical issues.
　　Bangbangbang
　　 The gunshots in the film were extremely loud. The black man who had escaped from the protagonist’s home brought two Arabs back from the killing and killed all quarters in the protagonist’s home. The ground was soon full of corpses.
　　As the mask was unwrapped, typical white faces appeared. Their and hideous appearances set off the greatness of the blacks and Arabs who appeared like saviors.
　　 "Yes, very good." Jonathan nodded again and again, "This film is really good."
　　Especially at the end, the whole film gets sublimated in an instant, even if whites dominate again, blacks and minorities cannot be lost!
　　 This film must be recommended in the column.
　　 The black-hearted male protagonist died, and the evil white neighbors died. The black man brought the Arabs back and saved three women.
　　 At the end of the film, Jonathan did not move. He closed his eyes and filtered the film in his mind to deepen his impression.
　　 The setting at the beginning is quite interesting, and it has profound meaning, directly addressing the deepest problem in American society-government and social violence.
　　 Then, the core of the film turned to the issue of race. Whites are supreme, and minorities are jokes in the eyes of whites.
The father hated the Arab neighbors and sold them a shoddy security system. Killing Night was silent because he didn’t like black people. Instead, the youngest daughter was full of humanity and saved the black people. As a result, it was the black people who came to meet the little girl. The Arab neighbors who had a good relationship saved the remaining family of three.
　　 I heard a few viewers next to him say that the child cheated...
　　 Jonathan felt that the few white audiences who said this were hopeless: Yes, in the darkest time of human nature, silence and self-preservation are of course the best choice, and there are people who want to resist and are simply seeking their own death.
　　 But what happens if everyone is silent in this society?
　　 When human nature is at its darkest, the brilliance of human nature often appears.
　　 The little girl saved her family because she saved the black people and treated the Arab neighbors kindly. The neighbors had decided to kill them a long time ago. Even if there were no high school students who chased and killed black people, would they be able to run?
　　Think about it. The little girl gets along well with her Arab neighbors and is full of sympathy for blacks. Children are not racially aware. Why do so many people grow up to become like her father?
where is the problem? Jonathan has only one answer: there is a problem with our society and our country!
　　 The rights and interests of ethnic minorities must be taken seriously, and attention cannot be waited until problems arise.
　　 At first glance, this film is a somewhat crude horror thriller, but it is actually a good movie alluding to social reality. Under the shell of horror, it deeply explores all aspects of human nature, race, and society.
　　 "I'm going, what a broken movie."
　　A retired audience walked by, obviously scolding the film: "The final winner turned out to be a and a terrorist. Is there any mistake?"
　　 There are people who meet: "A bad film!"
　　 Jonathan opened his eyes and saw the two white men, he could only shake his head and sigh. There is still a long way to go for affirmative action.
　　 He stood up and walked towards the exit of the theater. It is time to go back and write a column. We can't let such a good movie with profound practical significance be buried!
　　New York, Queens, Irving and Bill just walked out of the theater.
　　 "This movie is great." Owen watched it happily: "Those who look down on us should be as bad as the white people in the movie."
　　 The slogan has been chanted for many years, but the discrimination is still serious, so Bill nodded his head vigorously: "I will definitely not go back to save people if it is me."
　　 Irving said: "There are good people among white people. UU Reading www.uukanshu.com"
　　Bill thought for a while, nodded and said, "Yes, Jack and John are our friends."
　　 The two took a ride back to the community and walked inside together. They didn't go far, and met four or five people they knew.
　　 "Hey, what did you do?" A bald head asked, "Didn't you see you on the court tonight?"
　　 Irving smiled with white teeth: "Go to the movies."
　　 A fat man behind his bald head asked: "Did you go to a horror movie?"
　　 Going to watch horror movies on Halloween has long been popular culture.
Bill took the words: "Watched a really cool horror movie. By the way, when you have time, you can also go and watch it. The movie is called "Human Removal Project", which is great! The black characters in it are very interesting. Bad protein man."
　　 Bald head came to interest: "Really? Go and see tomorrow."
　　 A few people talked, talked about the movie and the ball game, and soon broke up.
　　 Targeted publicity and accurate target audience positioning are gradually playing a role. As the audience who saw the "Human Removal Project" increased, the word-of-mouth effect spread rapidly.
　　 And in the eyes of some professional film critics, this film has been interpreted with many profound social propositions.
　　 This point, even Ronan did not expect.
　　 On Saturday, the second day after the release of "Human Removal Project", "Human Removal Project" appeared in a column of heavy recommendations by many film critics.
　　 Speaking for the minorities, and belittle the white people as much as possible, that is the natural duty of left-thinking white film critics!
　　Of course, there are also a lot of people who scold bad movies, especially white audiences.
After 　　 was released in just one day, the word-of-mouth of "Human Elimination Project" split, showing a serious trend of polarization.
