    I loved the movie so much. I've never cried so much during any other movie than this one.

    it's a great movie and honestly I can't imagine how bad Sabrina felt about playing such a racist character, she must have hated it

    I would never imagine Sabrina Carpenter and Anthony Mackie sitting next to eachother. It's like my dreams have come true.

    Interesting how KJ identifies as white considering he's also Samoan which is sometimes considered a minority in Australia. I guess it's different in New Zealand, as they tend to be more accepting and one of the least prejudiced places in the world. Maybe it's because he's a quite pale mixed race man who for all intents and purposes looks white.

    I honestly felt bad for sabrina first bc she's playing a racist character second she's treated like she's not an important part of the movie(which is actually, technically racist)

      It’s not racist at all. She’s NOT an important role. Big Mav, Starr, Khalil, Seven, Sekani etc THOSE are important roles. How could you take this brilliant movie with such a brilliant message and turn it negative. “ awe, the white girl wasn’t the main character. So racist “. That’s disgusting.

      Mixed is not black that's common sense enough.
      When so then I can call her White because her father is White.

      @@honestyfirst978 Even if there's a part of her that's white, you can't deny the part of her that's black. Generally speaking, no she could never pretend having it harder than a black (not mixed raced) person or a person who's darker than her, but she still valid. Bi-racial people tend to experiment this struggle of never really be accepted by white people and also never really be accepted by black people... so to whom they can identify with?
