[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I mean, I think it is much more likely that these scenes are rooted in a similar background and culture. If I directed a scene, and someone else from the same cultural background directed a scene, we might pull from the same cultural tropes. Maybe we both set it in a summer kitchen making pierogies with our grandmothers. It pulls from a shared history, which is going to lead to similarities in content.[/quote] I don't know anything about the director, but Malia Obama is from the wealthiest, most privileged culture on the planet and did likely did not have one similar life experience growing up to the woman who directed Grace. It is laughable to say they had a shared history. Mahlia's shared history is more similar to the richest white upper echelon kids you know, and the director's share history is likely much more similar to your average middle class kid of any color.[/quote]
