but like this review [link:https://www.vox.com/2018/11/16/18069756/green-book-review-racism-schomburg-segregation],
most reviews I've seen have talked about the fact that the film centers the white character's experience and leaves out the Green Book and most of the horrors of overt racism for which the film is named. I think I'll pass on yet another "feel-good, white savior" film.
