Good point. I'm looking at the below two quotes and the colonialism thing doesn't seem nearly as far fetched as it did when I wrote it! lol

ever see the documentary on that movie? it's soul crushing.

why is it soul crushing?

director lives in a multi million dollar mansion in africa after the fact, while the lead actor had his entire family starve to death.. apparently the work they did was so they'd have the chance to 'make something of themselves' rather than actually monetary value

the documentary unfortunately documents it. i don't really remember exactly, but shit picked up for the dude after popularity exploded in asia etc, and the actors were actually properly paid
