| Successful films often strike a cultural nerve by speaking to a pressing social concern, or telling us something about ourselves in such a way that these films become a part of the fabric of our culture. This can range from key dialogue lines that people repeat in their daily lives, like, “Go ahead, make my day,” from Sudden Impact, or, “Wakanda Forever,” from Black Panther. Beyond simple dialogue, there are recent movies like Get Out, American Sniper, and The Post that address deeper social issues. Are there specific instances when this has been true for you? If so, what are they and why? |
