Kwi INew York Times Inqaku elipapashwe ngolwe-Lwesibini, u-Winner Award we-Academy kunye nesithixo esiphilayo u-Viola Davis uthethe ngeendima azisolayo ngokuzithatha, kwaye le ayikhankanyileyo yayiku- Uncedo -Ifilimu apho wayetyunjelwe imbasa yeAkhademi, nalapho uOctavia Spencer wagoduka waya kumdlali weqonga oBalaseleyo.
UDavis, kwisiqwenga, ucacisa ukuba akanantiyo nabantu abakwifilimu okanye ngasemva kwayo, kodwa loo nto Uncedo yahluleka njengefilimu kuba yayingenalo ilizwi elifanelekileyo.
Ndinayo, kwaye Uncedo kuluhlu. Kodwa hayi ngokwamava kunye nabantu ababandakanyekayo kuba bonke babebakhulu. Ubuhlobo endibenzileyo ngabo endizakuba nabo ubomi bam bonke. Ndinamava amnandi kunye nabanye abadlali ababalaseleyo ebantwini. Kwaye andinakucela umlingani ongcono kunoTate Taylor.
Ndisuke ndaziva ukuba ekupheleni kosuku ibingengawo amazwi ezicakazana eziviweyo. Ndiyamazi uAibileen. Ndiyamazi uMinny. Bangumakhulu wam. Ngumama wam. Kwaye ndiyazi ukuba xa usenza umboniso bhanyabhanya apho yonke indawo ikhoyo, ndifuna ukwazi ukuba kunjani ukusebenzela abantu abamhlophe nokukhulisa abantwana ngo-1963, ndifuna ukuva indlela oziva ngayo ngayo. Andizange ndive oko ngexesha le-movie.
Lo mgca wokucinga walandelwa yi-tweet ngumlawuli weSelma u-Ava DuVernay, owayethetha ngento yokuba Uncedo Yayiyifilimu yokugqibela awayesebenza kuyo njengombhengezi. UDuVernay uthethe ngendlela le bhanyabhanya kunye nokugxeka kwakhe okwamnyanzela ngayo ukuba ashiye i-PR kwaye abalise amabali ngabafazi abamnyama kunye nokuzazisa abamnyama okwakungekho kwinkcubeko.
Intlonipho enkulu kubo bonke ababandakanyekayo. Ngale nto ithethwayo, ndiyamqonda uViola koku. Ndiyathemba ukuba nabanye benjenjalo. UNCEDO yayiyifilimu yokugqibela endakha ndasebenza kuyo njengombhengezi. Ndiyeke PR. Ifilimu indityhalele ukuba ndenze eyam-ngenxa yezizathu uViola athi. Ndiyayibulela loo nto. https://t.co/BeL5OIXoK4

Ukuqala kwam ukuva kwaye ndabona esi sicatshulwa kuDavis, silandelwa yiTwitter evela eDuVernay, ndingazibuyisela kwangoko kumzuzu wokuba uViola Davis no-Octavia Spencer bonyulelwe ii-Oscars zale bhanyabhanya. Ndiyakhumbula ndicinga, ndiya konwaba kubo, kodwa ndinqwenela ukuba bekungekho kule movie. UViola Davis hayi ukuba ngumfazi wesibini oMnyama owake waphumelela owona mdlali mlingisi uOscar ngokudlala uAibileen kwi Uncedo yayingumzuzu wokukhululeka kum-hayi kuba wayengagqwesanga kumdlalo bhanyabhanya, kodwa ngenxa yokuba le ndawo yayingakulungelanga yena okanye udumo awayelufumana.
Ndandineminyaka elishumi elinethoba kuphela xa Uncedo yaphuma, kwaye ngelixa ndandingathethi ngoku njengoko ndinjalo ngoku, emva kokufunda incwadi kwaye kamva ndibukele ifilimu, bendisazi nje ukuba into ayilunganga ngebali. Ndilwenzile uphando lwam ndafumanisa ukuba umbhali wencwadi, uKathryn Stockett, ubhale eli bali ngokusekelwe kumava akhe nomsebenzi omnyama wasekhaya. Wayenjalo umangalele ngumfazi ogama lingu-Ablene Cooper, ixesha elide umzalwana kaStockett owathi uStockett wasebenzisa ukufana kwakhe. UStockett ubanga ukuba wayengamazi lo mfazi kwaye ityala laphoswa ngaphandle, kodwa lashiya incasa embi emlonyeni wam.
Incwadi, ifana neSue Monk Kidd's Ubomi obufihlakeleyo beenyosi , Libali elimalunga nokuza komntu ophambili emhlophe, kunye nobukhoboka kunye namalungelo oluntu njengemva kokukhula komlinganiswa. Yayiyinto abagxeki abamnyama ababesele bethetha ngayo Uncedo xa iqala ukuphuma. Njengoko UHuff Po uveza, kwi-2012, ngexesha lephulo lomdlalo bhanyabhanya u-Oscar, uRoxane Gay wabhala isiqwenga kwi NY Daily News ebizwa ngokuba yibhayisikobho engalunganga / incwadi embi, Icandelo I: Kutheni Uncedo ayinathemba, apho athi:
Incwadi, ebhalwe nguKathryn Stockett, ibibuthathaka emazwini nakwizenzo-igcwele ii-clichés, i-melodrama kunye ne-soupcon yokuphakanyiswa kobuhlanga nge-lens yomfazi omhlophe. Incwadi inamaxesha ayo, kwaye ngokuqinisekileyo ayifutshane kwisakhiwo. Kodwa akukho nto inokoyisa ukubhala okubi kakhulu. Indlela le ncwadi ethetha ngokungaginyisi mathe kwimozulu yobuhlanga entsonkothileyo kaJackson, Nkosazana., Ngeminyaka yoo-1960, apho inoveli isetiweyo, iyacaphukisa kangangokuba ikhusele ngokupheleleyo izinto ezimbalwa ezinazo.
Umboniso bhanya-bhanya ucaphukisa nangakumbi ngokuyinxenye ngenxa yobuchule bemovie ngokubanzi. Yonke into ibonakala intle. Ukuhanjiswa kukaTate Taylor kufanelekile. Abadlali bazikhulula ngokukhululekileyo. Alithandabuzeki elokuba wonke umntu obandakanyekayo kwimveliso usondele kwimisebenzi yakhe ngokuzinikela ngokunyanisekileyo.
Kwiskrini esikhulu, nangona kunjalo, izikhubekiso ezivela kwincwadi ziboniswa kwinkcazo ephezulu, iinyawo ezili-10 ukuphakama. Ukusetyenziswa gwenxa kweebhali zalapha ekhaya ezimnyama, ngakumbi xa u-Aibileen, omnye woncedo, ephindaphinda emxelela intlawulo yakhe emhlophe, Ulumkile. Unobubele. Ubalulekile.
Umgca wokugqibela, Ulumkile. Unobubele. Ubalulekile, yinto endiyithetha ngokuhlekisayo kubahlobo bam abamhlophe ukuze bahlekise, kuba umgca uhlekisa kakhulu.
Ke siyazi ukuba abagxeki abamnyama-ayingabo bonke, kodwa abanye-babethetha oku kwaye beziva oku ngelo xesha. Ke ithini impendulo evela kubabukeli abangabantu abamnyama? Ewe, enye yenkqubo Uncedo abagxeki ndibone ukuba ngokwenene bevela Abaselula baseTurkey , apho bagxotha ukugxekwa kwefilimu ngu-Melissa Harris-Perry ongumfundi omnyama.
Eyona nto yayihlala inamathele kum xa ndibukele le kliphu, ukusukela ngexesha endayibona ngalo, yayiyindlela impendulo yomkhosi ibila ngayo: Ewe, khange ndiyibone loo nto. Ndiyithandile imovie, ke le nto ayisiyiyo ngxaki .
Mamela, ndiyakuthanda Ubume bamanzi, kodwa xa abameli bokukhubazeka bandixelela iingcinga zabo kumdlalo bhanyabhanya, andifani, ewe ewe, bebenokwenza loo nto, kodwa oku kwakusalungile. Kulungile ukuvumela abanye abantu, abakhoyo kwesi sithuba, ukuba bathethe ngaphandle kokusebenzisa iqonga lakho ukuthetha nabo ukuphendula-ngakumbi xa nizenza njengamahlakani.
Kulungile ukutsho Uncedo kubhaliwe, kwaye ikakhulu, kubaphulaphuli abangabamnyama. Oko akutsho ukuba abantu abamnyama abanako ukuyonwabela, okanye ukuba uyayithanda, kwaye yeyona movie uyithandayo, kwaye ikwenza ulile, ayilunganga loo nto. Oko kuhle kakhulu. Nangona kunjalo, loo nto ayenzi ukuba imiba ejikelezileyo ihambe. Xa nisenza iimuvi ezinje ukwazisa abantu abamhlophe ukuba abamnyama kwakunzima kakhulu, yinto ebalisa ukuba abantu abamnyama bayazi ngokucacileyo sele ikhona, ke musani ukumangaliswa ukuba siyifumana isilela kubunzulu.
Xa abagxeki abamnyama besithi kunuka into ehlekisayo, nokuba awuvumelani, mhlawumbi kuya kufuneka umamele, okanye ubuncinci, ungathethi ngabo.
