That the only pregant woman left on earth was a black woman? Just a thought
sharefirst of all, there are very few coincidences in this film. They thought through every detail.
This film makes a strong effort to show the struggle, worth, and humanity of immigrants and the 3rd world throughout. Kee being black was no mistake.
Didn't mind the fact that she was black, but why make her a loose slut who didn't even know the name of the chap [of many] who sprayed in her?
shareWould you have minded if she was a WHITE loose slut who didn't know the chap who sprayed in her?
I think your sad comment answers this question better than anyone would.
@ManuelManipulation I thought it was to turn the idea of her being a modern-day Mother Mary on its head. Remember how she tells Theo that she was a virgin to wind him up?
share@samf2006 I hadn't really thought about it, but I guess they made Kee the opposite of what Mother Mary is usually portrayed as - Kee's not white, not a virgin, and doesn't even know who the father is. Plus she swears like a trooper and wants to call her baby, of all things, Froley.
So when she tells Theo that she's a virgin to wind him up, I think the movie is also winding the audience up by thwarting our expectations of what this miracle mother would be like. Plus it shows us that Kee is well aware that she's a modern-day Mother Mary.
