![]() I included that because I was surprised to find out it was directed by a woman. I guess I can't defend why I like that it's directed by a woman of color, but I think Mira Nair is smart and talented.I like that it has African musicians because it's good music and it makes me discover sounds I wouldn't normally hear and because it fits the movie really well. ![]() I like that it's filmed in Uganda because it shows what Kampala actually looks like, which makes it informative and more realistic, and because they framed it beautifully with lots of natural locations.I'm actually interested to hear about Africa and I found that story particularly compelling and the characters refreshing. I like that it's about ordinary yet extraordinary African people for the reason above.I like it when a movie makes me see something I don't usually see because I feel like it widens my understanding of the world a little bit. It's not "good because it has black people", it's good (or at least interesting to me) because it's set in a country/continent that I know little about and I like it when a movie "teaches" me about something.
