So in love with Kerry getting a moment, one that I know will last. I've always known she was a good actress because she's a good temptress. From that straight to DVD movie,
Lift to Spike Lee's
She Hate Me, I've been a fan for a while -- hence her appearance on my side bar.
Now Kerry has fans salivating every Thursday as she portrays Olivia Pope, a big shot "fixer" working in Washington, DC and having a torrid affair with the Commander in Chief, President, Fitzgerald Grant, on Shonda Rhimes'
Scandal.
She's currently also starring in Quentin Tarantino's
Django Unchained -- the D is silent -- as Broomhilda von Shaft aka little trouble maker.
The movie as received a lot of attention. One for the (
supposed) overuse of the "n" word & Tarantino's normal usage of gun play & fake blood.
What I hope the movie will eventually be remembered for being being a masterful story telling, great acting by the entire cast & the bravery to recreate the story of a slave. During many of the scenes, I found myself cringing, not because the word ni..a, ni..a, ni..a (
Trinidad James' voice) was being said, but because people actually had to endure some of the treatment that was depicted.
If anything, lets still be ashamed that slavery happened in this country, and not try to deflect from that fact.
Give me reparations!!!!
