Cold White Whine

The usual White whining about how no-one can trust no-one in White culture.

The usual directionless esthetic expression of human emotion fails to enlighten us as to why Whites are as unempathetic as this; a depiction degenerating into criticizing others for their emotional inadequacy as a means of Projecting & Displacing ones own inabilities.

This movie wastes a great cast on little more than the superficiality of White culture where Materialism has replaced Happiness as a social and a personal goal. This makes the characterization feeble because the characters are so similar to each other.

This meta-film talks about Whites rather than expressing who they are - in any deep sense. Much like in real-life, Whites are unable to really address why they have created such a lonely and such an emotionally-masochistic culture. Is it the White insularity that inevitably springs from White supremacy?

Despite the title, there are no real endings here - happy or otherwise.
