So I just started watching.. -The Equalizer-
Denzel washington intervenes in the life of a spiraling young girl prostitute.
I'm about 15mins into the movie, and I thought, Could they have made this movie with a young black girl..
I thought this, and the answer is Probably NOT..
the white girl has a monopoly on the maiden in distress cliche..
The movie would be much more difficult to monetize because then it would be identical to all the other million white guy saves white girl movies.. LOLOL
The key shtick in this movie is that the black man may wield the moniker of an "unlikely savior"..
if they used a white guy as an "unlikely savior", the dude would probably be a drunkard or does drugs..
yet, with the black guy, suddenly all he'd have to be is black.. hahaha..
Racism is alive and well hahahaha... thanks hollywood..
