I just finished watching a short film my nephew did in his fancy film school and it really sucked in a ways that make me angry. I wanted it to be good; I really did but it's false in so many ways and I'm pissed and sad.

It's all about an authentic guy who is being mercilessly ridden by his film school buddies who are pretentious. This film so authentic that my nephew has portrayed himself as a cool black kid because that's who he identifies as with his hip-hop moves. Which is too bad considering he's a suburban white kid at overpriced film school.

And the pretentious film professor is named Cheese leGay.

Shit.

"And the pretentious film professor is named Cheese leGay."

In that case, he will probably get an A.

Hee! This is the funniest thing I've read all week. I know you're angry about it, but soon enough you will reread and guffaw as loudly as I just did. (At the description of the movie, not what you wrote.)

So what did you say when the inevitable, "How'd you like it?" question was posed?

Man. He's just stickin true to his roots. In the hood.

Maybe the film was Ironic, not the movie, but the entirety of it's CREATION. Maybe it is performance art!

Even when it is family, it is good if you take a stand if you don't like it. I doubt that his teacher will challenge him on it.
