©2023年福克斯傳媒有限責任公司。CR:紮克Popik /福克斯TUBI今年繼續成為黑人領導的著名電影,目前反響是TUBI肉桂的一個特性。導演和執行由Bryian基斯蒙哥馬利Jr .)這部電影講述了一個不幸的戀人和埃迪,由Hailey·基爾和大衛Iacono扮演的愛情故事使他們的麻煩。一個字符,尤其是那些被證明是一個強大的對手兩人的媽媽,由傳說中的Pam格裏爾。格裏爾的性格作為家族的複仇女族長犯罪組織的業務和家庭麵臨後果的電影的主角。標誌性的女演員,著名的推廣帶來電影,覺得這個角色適合她的遺產刻畫強,微妙的女性。“她是一個不容小覷的力量,超越精神,我相信我的很多角色。許多婦女在我的家人和朋友組讓我想起Coffy和狡猾的棕色,甚至我看到街上的人,因為他們有邊界,而這個角色沒有任何。如果你穿過她,你要對付她,她願意冒險的生活和一切。我不能看電影,因為它給了我第二次焦慮由於她強度。所以我知道我的工作,它嚇了我一跳。 That was my preparation, and I knew I did the work if it scared me.” 'Cinnamon' Key Art ©2023 Fox Media LLC. CR: Zac Popik/FOX for TUBI While Cinnamon has been hailed as a nod to blaxploitation films of the past, from its rich cinematography to the dynamic characters and plot line, the genre is making a comeback. Grier, however, feels that it never went away. “I don't think it ever went away. I think we've evolved with a younger generation of filmmakers that appreciate it, and the perspective is different but unique. It will live on in the future. I just love that what I did inspired Montgomery and other filmmakers who feel comfortable doing it at another energy level with other beats and look back. It’s the constant elevation of how we make the genre.” The trailblazer’s prolific career has influenced the artistic endeavors of many women who’ve paid homage to her, including Kilgore, Megan Thee Stallion, and others. Grier feels abundantly proud of them and their imprints on the world. “I'm very proud of them because they all come from different communities with different perspectives and believe in different issues. It's a joy to see women not being a monolith because we're all every woman. So, I regale in it, applaud them, and hope I leave even more for them as I age. I learned from them, they learned from me, and it's full circle. I'm just elated about the women of today.” Damon Wayans in 'Cinnamon' ©2023 Fox Media LLC. CR: Zac Popik/FOX for TUBI While Grier’s role added mystery and suspense to the film, it was balanced with the levity and light-heartedness of the incomparable Daman Wayans, who portrays car salesman and convenience store owner Wally. Wayans’ character serves as the intricate link between the protagonists and the antagonists, a role in which he wanted to find the perfect balance in character attributes. “When reading the script, I felt like I knew who this man was. From there, I worked my way back because he's a salesman who’s taken advantage of Kilgore’s character at the convenience store. He's not a good guy, but there's something lovable about him, and that's what I wanted to highlight. I wanted to walk the line between sleaze and humor.” Wayans, who executed this duality in the character’s portrayal, praises Montgomery for helping him to bring it all to life. “I attribute that to the director and his vision. Montgomery knew what he wanted and what he didn't want. Sometimes, he would give me directives to play Wally because he understood these characters. He was a great director, almost like a conductor. We never really had long talks about it, just tweaks here and there, and it just really helped shape this character. It's good to have someone that invested as a writer and director.” Follow me on LinkedIn . Check out my website .
