OPRAH'S NEW FILM:

IN MY OPINION:

WILLIAM REYNOLDS;

 

OPRAH'S NEW FILM:

Hollywood preps for 2020, pushing social justice, self-worship, and girls-are-smarter-than-boys bromides.

‘What are you?” a stupefied child asks the apparition standing overhead in A Wrinkle in Time. And Oprah Winfrey answers back, “I am a part of the universe!” Oprah’s fame has cost her the transparency to be a believable actress (which she so movingly was in Jonathan Demme’s Beloved), yet she achieves godhead in A Wrinkle in Time, a Disney film devoted to pagan self- worship. It is the second phase of Disney’s black-enslavement program this year (following Black Panther), and black female Ava DuVernay joins Oprah as director of this big-screen secular parable.

Although A Wrinkle in Time comes from a children’s novel by Madeleine L’Engle, the movie itself talks down to adult audiences as children.

So far not as big as BLACK PANTHER (FEW ARE) but overall pretty good reviews.
