'Fargo' (2014): Does the True Story Genre Need to be True?
Although Fargo is not actually based on a true story, I do believe it is worth the watch. It has drama, suspense, and a mysterious figure to keep you engaged.

# Translation The story begins with Mak Munah living with her disabled son, Udin, who is the stepmother to Wawa, whose father has passed away. Wawa studied abroad using money from her father's land that was mortgaged after repeatedly pressuring her stepmother to convince her father to do so. Wawa returns to work in Malaysia after finishing her studies but is reluctant to meet her stepmother and Udin. Wawa gives her stepmother one week to vacate the dilapidated house because she has sold the land. The situation becomes chaotic when, after the deadline passes, the buyer arrives to demolish the house where Mak Munah and Udin live. Wawa hurries over and asks the buyer for an explanation, promising to redeem the land. Fortunately, Mak Munah and Udin's employer, Mr. Musa, intervenes and promises to repay the buyer for the purpose of redeeming the land. Wawa, remorseful, immediately apologizes to Mak Munah. But will she succeed in seeking forgiveness from her father?

I came across Urchin by chance and decided to watch it because of the title. It made me think of the spiky animal that lives at the bottom of the ocean, and the old Dickensian novels, where an urchin was an orphaned, homeless child in shaggy and dirty clothes.
White audiences saw Peola’s mixed-race passing as a Black woman’s struggle to be white. Black audiences saw it as the rebellion of a Black woman trying to gain privileges only given to white people.
Rules are nowhere to be seen in the harsh unfiltered reality of ‘Fair Play.’
Lin-Manuel Miranda's Tony-winning musical translates beautifully to the screen.
There were too many irrelevant parts that could have been shortened, and too many characters that didn't advance the plot. Either way, some things didn't add up. This was just another played out plot with little, if any, originality in it. By the end of the film, I wasn't happy that she finally got her freedom, I was happy that it was finally over.
