Everything I have seen from her is awful. She is the source of the woke filth that is destroying so many movies. She turned the beloved classic, A Wrinkle in Time into a steaming turd. She took amazing source material and managed to make it horrible.
Even as a white male, I have an immense amount of respect for Ava. Anybody who is outspoken and passionate about who they are is an inspiration in my opinion, personally I am disabled so I have a tiny bit of an understanding of what it’s like to be part of a marginalized community that is underrepresented in the media, and I’m currently in film school so I have to be aware of how difficult it is for someone who is part of a marginalized community to become successful in the entertainment industry. I do have a lot of respect for Ava because she did what any person in my shoes dreams of doing, defying the odds and being successful. I’m inclined to think that she’s been told she can’t do certain things because she is a woman of color, I can relate to that albeit to a less extreme extent. And as someone who struggled a lot with my identity as a disabled person, I wish I were as outspoken and unapologetic as she is. She’s a badass and I mean that in the best way possible!

Ava duvernay is an angel. #Whentheyseeus #13th Those two Netflix documentaries made me cry like a baby The injustice and oppression we face because of the color of our skin. How do anyone live with themselves when killing or convicting an innocent person. God have mercy on their souls. Thank you Ava!
I love her work, I just think that she must stay away from fantasy stories, they are not her genre, "A Wrinkle in time" was really horrible, I think social justice is her way.
Ava is nothing like Tyler Perry. They’re not even on the same level creatively. Tyler is an entrepreneur and marketing genius but Ava is an extraordinary artist.
@@nicolemccray8095 that’s your “opinion.” However, they’re both extraordinary. It’ll be interesting to see how you break down why they’re not on the same level creatively or are you just responding just to feel important. Bc last I checked the entrepreneurial/ marketing part of TP came in the latter part of his career. Although he is a creative genius as well, hence how he got where he’s at
I would agree her films are for a specific audience, and I am not one of them. Now she is making a New Gods film...WB needs to take a look at A Wrinkle In Time with the $100 million plus budget and cancel New Gods and wait til they have the foundation set for a reboot DC universe. One does not simply tell the story of New Gods without context....which Zack Snyder was telling perfectly until WB got too touchy
I have always wanted to meet her. I think she an intelligent director. There is love in her projects. Ava , I know the project that will open the sky for everyone. Our ancestors need this story told. Call me and I will tell you .... You’re incredible!!!!
You know theres a scripture in The Bible that says God "hates a liar". She's been fired from absolutely NOTHING, and now you have to stand before God for your lies. Good job Genius! 😃 lolol
She did it by exploiting union contracts to pay the people who make her social justice programming half of what every other union production does. Many productions have the right to pay you the bare minimum, but Ava and her Daft Productions is the only one Ive ever worked for that exercised that option. Ava, why? Why, why, why? You are kind, your are empathetic - you have made incredible works of art that shed light on moments where people without power have been under the thumbs of those with power. That dynamic happens between high profile producers like yourself and the people who work for you - you hold the power, Ava, why do you consistently pay people as little as you can get away with? You are airing on major platforms, your projects have grand budgets and make a lot of money, why do you not think it is appropriate for that to get to the people that make your movies and tv shows? Where is the social justice in that, Ava?
Groundbreaking in her career. She's been the first black woman to be nominated / win some monumental awards. That says something about her skills even if you might not like her films.
Mark Allen you clearly don’t recall how biased the film industry was when it came to handing out awards and nominations to POC in the years she was being recognized. You’ve spent a lot of energy trying to speak over what others see in her art, and her gift...as if your opinion has more worth, carries more weight than theirs. It doesn’t. You appear small, petty, jilted, and daft. When you lose to a woman, it’s because she cheated or you let her win. You’re a dime a dozen.
Mark Allen no idea who or what you’re referring to. Were you dumped by a Black Woman or did you lose a promotion to one? What is it specifically about Black Women that’s so problematic for you?
Mark Allen Fans are vocal about a lack of representation overall. I’ve never seen or heard Black Actors or Actresses cry foul about not being nominated.
Mark Allen JPS is the monolith for Black performers??? 🥱 You said “every time black performers aren’t nominated for an award they see it as racist.” You’re implicitly biased and you should address it. You are well versed in tidbits that confirm your biases, do you ever seek information that challenges them?
She is the worst ever. Everything I have seen from her is awful. She is the source of the woke filth that is destroying so many movies. She turned the beloved classic, A Wrinkle in Time into a steaming turd. She took amazing source material and managed to make it horrible.
She's a person who puts people into moral categories according to their race (by the way, that's called a "racist"). But people are not first groups or "communities," but individuals - some good, some evil - does not matter the color of your skin (as Dr. King said). Her views are the last thing America needs, if we are ever going to make progress coming together.
Ava Duvernay has never made a good movie or project in her life. Selma was poorly constructed and horrible with historical accuracy Wrinkle In Time was garbage. She's the female M. Night Shymalan.
I love her story. She had a goal and went for it full heartedly and you can see the passion in her. She's a revolutionary and one of my idols
Choose better idols.
Bravo!!👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Ms. DuVernay is an *AMAZING* filmmaker - so happy she's getting the recognition she deserves!!✨🎼🎉🌈🎊🍾🥂💫

“I’ll be the success in my own eyes.” Period
👏👏👏
But she's not successful really. Wrinkle in Time was a bad movie that is only recognized and is considered good because of them saying it is.
@@DonoZeek What does "my own eyes" mean?

Beautiful interview, loved the full version as well

She is a beautiful, talented filmmaker.

Willie is a great interviewer
PRETTY LADY:)
Beautiful, beautiful woman. Resembles Laila Ali. I would say Tyler Perry’s female equivalent, but he’s his own female equivalent

I want to be like her
Very Talented Proud of you Ava
Stay blessed

Everyone starts somewhere, regardless the audience. Tom king is co writing new gods with ava and he praises for her contributions.
She inspires me to become a movie and television director unto this day. I love her 😍
go get it!!, Ms. Raell Moreland!!👍👍👍👍
looking forward to seeing *YOUR* name in lights, too!!🎇🎥🌟🎬🎆🏆💃🏾🤗🎥🍾🥂
Mark Allen all have u know that this profile represents BLM!
It’s a tough business and if you need to be inspired by somebody else you won’t make it
Ava is a shining light.
I loved this entire interview
i love her unapologetic and authentic voice
I have always wanted to meet her. I think she an intelligent director. There is love in her projects. Ava , I know the project that will open the sky for everyone. Our ancestors need this story told. Call me and I will tell you .... You’re incredible!!!!
What a great interview :)
She's been fired from everything, the woke industry in collapsing thank GOD.
You know theres a scripture in The Bible that says God "hates a liar". She's been fired from absolutely NOTHING, and now you have to stand before God for your lies. Good job Genius! 😃 lolol

Ken Burns the original journalist
Who would give $120k to someone who had never made a film but did PR? No wonder so much hype.
Who?😂

Groundbreaking force? What films have you been watching

She always works during the movie and more.

She's also a hypocrite .
I’m honestly not a huge fan of her work. But I’ll support her forever.
You don't like her movies? Why.🤔
@Mark Allen lol... I guess it would be nice to go into depth as to why he didn't like them.
@Mark Allen which one did you watch?
@Mark Allen I see... Thanks for the response.❤️
