Similar to a Chinese one-day trip movie

The black male protagonist is ugly and ugly. He doesn't know how to act, either frowning or smiling hippie, not to mention the classic French dance. He can be called the first black man who can't dance. Let the big beauties and poison masters serve as a foil for him. I don't know if his character touched them, or the commission of the producer is high enough, or they are not as popular in the United States as I imagined? In short, the filming was shabby, awkward, dry, and a bit illogical in some places. It's like a bad student copying a student's homework, but the copy is not good.

    A cliché, abrupt and abrupt. It's a thousand miles away from the original, and this is a remake...

    In the US version, the two scenes where Philip meets his pen pal and why he fired the black man were changed so much that I didn't like it very much. The original version is more delicate, more touching and heartwarming. The US version gives me a very flat feeling.

The Upside quotes

  • Dell Scott: Look, I think your plantation is bananas. But unfortunately, I don't wanna be nobody's servant. So how about you just sign my paperwork, and I'll think about your offer, okay?

    Philip Lacasse: Well, we can't sign papers saying that you're looking for work if you're going to turn down the work I offered.

  • Latrice: I'm done, Dell. I can't. Out. I don't wanna see you and neither do Anthony.

    Dell Scott: That boy need me. He need me to protect him, because people around here eat boys like that for lunch.

    Latrice: How you gonna protect him if you ain't never here?

    Dell Scott: You're asking me to leave.

    Latrice: Because I can't count on you.

    Dell Scott: What do you want from me? Hmm?

    Latrice: Now? Nothing. What did I want from you? Everything. Help, support.
