This movie should be a lesson for "modern" filmmakers
25 October 2019
In recent years, filmmakers severely compromised the idea of a good storytelling by putting diverse characters unnecessarily into the plots, just for the sake of diversity. The story should come first or at least it should be compatible with the composition of the characters. Otherwise, the viewer would notice this forced attitude at storytelling. Some might enjoy such interventions but I beg to differ.

In that regard, this movie did a fantastic job, almost three decades ago. A woman helps the empowerment of two women from different timelines. Albeit not agressively she also takes a stand against racism. There is even an implied homosexual attraction between two female characters. And the movie does all things without compromising its authenticity, nothing feels forced to me.

To modern filmmakers: If you would like to have diversity in your movie, write your script accordingly, build your story onto diverse characters. Don't write generic plots and expect us to believe that you are somewhat sensitive person ,and not to cash on diversity trend, just because you let the minorities represent themselves.
