Fitzgerald is the "bad guy".
It wasn't bad enough that he left Glass, but he's portrayed as an atheist (not true).
In the movie, white men (of course) killed Glass' son, whose mother was a native. But in real life, Glass didn't even have a son.
For some reason, the writer decided to invent a son and, of course, make him half native.
All of the people that help Glass along his journey are.... not white.
What about Bridger or Captain Andrew Henry both white
Native tried killing Glass through out the movie... even a brown bear tried
The son is obviously there to make glass have more reason to get revenge & hurt him as a character.
The sons a plot device, not a racial metaphor
The hero of the movie was white, so this movie isn't anti-white. And they also showed Native Americans killing and scalping people.
shareWho gives a *beep*, just watch the movie
shareI think there is a definite theme of lack or respect for the people and the land.
shareIn order to make the character of Fitzgerald more unappealing the writer had him refer to the Rees as "tree *beep* That is modern PC nonsense as the word did not become a pejorative term until well into the 20th century.
shareThere's always someone who tries to find something racial in a movie, no matter what it is.
Time wounds all heels.
I was just thinking this myself.
Just last week i was reading some other thread on IMDB about how the show Westworld is supposedly anti-Black.
Some people on here are really nutty when it comes to race issues.
LMAO! Just more proof that there's always someone. It's comical.
Next it will be someone saying that, because Ford had Bernard kill Theresa Cullen, the show is pro slavery due to Bernard being black and being instructed to do something by a white man. It wouldn't surprise me.
