This is the reality of African Americans

Director John Singleton passed away suddenly in April 2019 at the young age of 51. ``Boyz N the Hood'' (1991) is a masterpiece of a youth film full of youthful sensibilities and insight, which was his feature debut and masterpiece when he was 23 years old. Director Singleton achieved the remarkable feat of being nominated for the Academy Award for Best Director the following year for this film at such a young age.

Director Barry Jenkins, who won the Academy Award for Best Picture for `` Moonlight '' (2016), came across ``Boyz N the Hood'' when he was a boy and used to only watch Hollywood action blockbusters. (“Holy shit!”) “This is my life! This is my world!” he said in shock. If ``Boyz 'n the Hood'' didn't exist, ``Moonlight'' might not exist either.

"Boyz 'n the Hood" trailer

Just as Barry Jenkins was influenced by its overwhelming reality, this film, Boyz N the Hood, is a film by a white male director who sympathizes with the black community. It showed a ``real'' world that was on a completely different level from the movies that usually depict it. As with Spike Lee's historical masterpiece ` `Do the Right Thing' ' (1989), there is a genre in which African Americans depict the world they have lived in with real feeling. It started from them.
