Hollywood producer, Tyler Perry has come out to say that he won’t be swayed by critics who think only certain Black stories should be told. He recently had his say during a chat with Keke Palmer on her podcast, and fans have been reacting.
According to him, he would remain committed to his authentic voice, and he believes he is divinely positioned to tell the stories he does, so detractors will only try and fail.
He added that other producers who allow critics to deter them from their path will face dire consequences.
His words, “I feel God’s put me in this place to tell stories, and if you let the haters talk you out of that place, you’ll wake up in hell.
Don’t discount these people and say their stories don’t matter. Who are you to say which Black story is important or should be told? Get out of here with that bulls***.”
WOW.
The cinema of the United States, consisting mainly of major film studios (also known metonymously as Hollywood) along with some independent films, has had a large effect on the global film industry since the early 20th century.
The dominant style of American cinema is classical Hollywood cinema, which developed from 1910 to 1962 and is still typical of most films made there to this day.
Hollywood is considered to be the oldest film industry, in the sense of being the place where the earliest film studios and production companies emerged. It is the birthplace of various genres of cinema —among them comedy, drama, action, the musical, romance, horror, science fiction, and the epic—and has set the example for other national film industries.
Many of Hollywood’s highest-grossing movies have generated more box-office revenue and ticket sales outside the United States than films made elsewhere. The United States is a leading pioneer in motion picture engineering and technology.
