I think the movie is realistic, and I understand why that became an Oscar, because this is a very good movie. I’m very glad for I have seeing this movie, and the movie makes me understand the relationships against the white and black people in America. But not every white and black people hatred each other, as we think, because of the movie. But there’s some problem I ghetto’s, whit black and white people, because they have gangs for the white, and gangs for the black.
