U-Octavia Spencer, uKelvin Harrison Jr. kunye noNaomi Watts kwi Khanya .Neon Asisoze sifunde igama eliyinyani lomlingisi oyintloko kumlawuli uJulius Onah ngokulungelelaniswa komdlalo we-Off-Broadway kaJC Lee. Xa abazali bakhe bamamkela e-Eritrea xa wayesemncinci, uxelela abaphulaphuli kwisikolo sakhe esasimiselwe kakuhle eMantla Virginia ukuba umama wakhe omhlophe akakwazanga ukubiza igama lakhe.
Utata ucebise ukuba bandinike igama elitsha, utshilo umfundi weenkwenkwezi kunye ne-ace debater esiyazi njengoLuce, edlalwa ngokuzithemba okubandayo nguKelvin Harrison Jr. (2017's Kufika ebusuku). Bakhethe ‘iLuce,’ okuthetha ukukhanya.
Ngokufanelekileyo kwifilimu eyazingcayo ngokuba ivulekile-kwaye ayibonakali, zininzi iindlela zokutolika loo anecdote. Ngaba libali lomnqweno, uthando kunye namathuba wesibini? Okanye ngaba umzekelo wentando yenkululeko yokuqhuba i-amok-amawaka eminyaka yenkcubeko icinyiwe ngenxa yokuba abanye abantu abamhlophe bebengenakukhathazeka ngokufunda ukubizwa kwegama lase-Afrika endaweni yoko bakhethe enye efanelekileyo kwisikhephe okanye kwi-Golden Retriever?
Umboniso bhanya-bhanya ujonge kuthi ukuba sizamazamise lo mbhodamo ungacacanga, sizame ukuphikisa ukuba ingaba abalinganiswa — ngolwimi lweempendulo — zezilo, iingcwele, okanye mhlawumbi zimbini zazo zombini.
Into ayenzi kakuhle kangako kukuxelela ibali elixhonyiweyo apho ungonyusa khona imiba eyahlukeneyo yelungelo, isazisi kunye neendlela esizifaka ngaphakathi kubuhlanga, sisazi okanye singazi. Endaweni yoko, isitayile sayo esomeleleyo sinyanzela abalinganiswa ukuba banxibelelane ngokukhululekileyo kwaye benze ngokungekho ngqiqweni ukuze babenako ukukhupha ezi vagaries, begqume ngesigqubuthelo semicimbi eyimfihlakalo enobuzaza obunokujongana ngqo nayo.
Uxinzelelo oluphambili lwefilimu luza, kuzo zonke izinto, ukutolika okungathethekiyo kukaLuce komntu waseMarxist uFrantz Fanon. Xa utitshala wakhe kaRhulumente kunye nezeMbali uNks Wilson (Octavia Spencer) emnika umsebenzi wokubhala isincoko ngelizwi lomntu wasembalini, uLuce ukhetha isazi sefilosofi esekwe eMartinique, ekubonakala ukuba wayejolise kwinkolelo kaFanon yokuba ulawulo lobukoloniyali ngokwendalo lwalunobundlobongela kwaye kubonakala ngathi akayikhathaleli ikhwelo lakhe lenkcubeko yesizwe phakathi kwabantu abacinezelweyo baseAfrika.
Endaweni yokuxoxa ngezinto ezixhalabisayo malunga nephepha kunye naye okanye nabazali bakhe kwaye ufumanise ukuba izimvo zalo zazinokwaziswa njani zizinto ezintsonkothileyo kunye nesinye esidlulileyo sikaLuce- lithuba uninzi lootitshala kwisikolo esiphakamileyo esithende ngewayelonwabile-Nks. UWilson usebenzisa ijelo elingagqitywanga likaLuce likaFanon njengesizathu sokukhangela ilokhari yakhe; Apho ufumana ibhegi yomlilo. Ngelixa ebanga ukuba bangomnye umntu, UNks Wilson uyazibuza ukuba ingaba angangumqondiso wokuba umkhondo wengxoxo kunye neqela lempikiswano lingangomnye umntu ngokupheleleyo.
Ekuhlolweni kwayo kobumnyama obufihlekileyo ngaphakathi kosapho olubonakalayo olugqibeleleyo lwaselunxwemeni, kunye nomntu omncinci wase-Afrika waseMelika mhlawumbi esebenzisa i-naiveté yenkululeko, ifilimu iphuma njengomnqamlezo obandayo phakathi Abantu abaqhelekileyo kwaye Amanqanaba amathandathu okwahlulahlula.

Nangona kunjalo, ezo bhanyabhanya zazithembile ngokwaneleyo kumabali ababebalisela wona ukuba abanyanzelwanga ukuba badlale umxholo wabo njengombhalo wabo, into ethile Khanya yenza rhoqo kwaye ayicacanga. Umzekelo, enye yeentetho esizivayo nguNks Wilson ukuhambisa malunga nokutshintsha ikhowudi (wink, wink), ngaphandle kokuba sisihloko esifanelekileyo kwiklasi yokucebisa kunakwimbali ephambili.
Kwangokunjalo, ukuqhubela ekhaya umxholo wefilimu wethokheni, inqununu yesikolo, edlalwe ngu-Tony ophumeleleyo u-Norbert Leo Butz, ibhekisa ku-Luce njengogqibeleleyo kwaye athetha izinto ezinje, Ukuba ubeka amagama athi 'ongumfundi ongumzekelo,' umfanekiso ka Luce uzokuza phezulu. Konke kuyinto encinci kwinqanaba.
Abalingisi abanetalente, kubandakanya uNahomi Watts kunye noTim Roth njengabazali bakaLuce, bayasokola ukwenza ingqondo ngeempendulo zabalinganiswa babo ezingenakulindeleka kwimeko, kunye nokuzola kwemigca emininzi abacelwa ukuba bayithethe. (Kukwanqabile ukuba abadlali babonakale begula bekhululekile nangona bobabini abalinganiswa babo beboniswa bethengisa iwayini ngabanqolobi.)
Kwelinye icala, iHarrison e-mercurial, edlala uLuce ngokungathi wayengumbhexeshi we-chess ongafundekiyo, ubalasele. Okwangoku, eyona nto ayenzayo kukuma kukaMarsha Stephanie Blake, okwangoku otyunjwe ngu-Emmy Xa Basibona. Njengodadewabo kaNks.Wilson schizophrenic, izigcawu zakhe ezimbalwa ziyavutha ngokuqina kweemvakalelo apho ifilimu ngenye indlela ibonisa kuphela.
Njengokutshisa njengokusebenza kukaBlake, isizathu somgaqo wakhe weplani awucaci kangako-ngaphandle kokuba idrama yekhitshi ekhitshini ifuna ukuba malunga nayo yonke into ngaxeshanye. Kukho iqhinga elingezantsi malunga notywala, imvume kunye nokuhlaselwa ngokwesondo; ifilimu iphonononga imibuzo yendalo xa ithelekiswa nokukhulisa Ikwaxoxa ngokulindeleka kwabucala kwiindawo ezinabantu abaninzi. Khanya uphela udlala ngokuncinci njengemovie kunokuba wenza unyaka wokuqala weklasi yesifundo somthetho.
Iziphumo zineenjongo ezintle kodwa ekugqibeleni ifilimu ethandabuzekayo, ethi izive ikhathazeke ngakumbi ngokuthetha into ebalulekileyo kunokuba ingumsebenzi obaluleke kakhulu wokuhambisa ibali elinyanzelekileyo elifanele ukuxelwa.
