The whole series is black-and-white, so when I went to shoot one of the women I only had black-and-white film with me. She had reddish hair and was a very pretty girl, a nice girl.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I am more of an old black and white movies fan.
There's a difference between actresses of color and actresses not of color. If you look at how big my movies are.
So now I feel I'm lucky in the respect that I can sort of pick a little more carefully, which is tricky because as a black actress, there aren't that many roles to pick from.
My mom loved the old black-and-white films.
I know some black actresses who have to wait every 19 films for a role. I can be cast in practically every one as a young white male.
Perhaps I am old-fashioned, but black and white films still hold an affectionate place in my heart; they have an incomparable mystique and mood.
I liked the fact that there were so many different representations of black women and black men in the movie. It wasn't like we all had the same agenda.
Any film I do is not going to change the way black women have been portrayed, or black people have been portrayed, in cinema since the days of D.W. Griffith.
After Halle Berry does her films and Queen Latifah does her films, it's left to all the black, Latino and Asian actresses to fight over a couple of roles. I opted for some TV. There's just not a ton of work in film.
With the black and white films, one was concerned with tone.
