#why are all the extras in dreadlocks and playing reggae music and waving the Jamaican flag

watching a movie about a sport you know nothing about can be the definition of vibing without comprehension and i experienced that today
#film: 83
#83 the movie
#bollywood
#local gay watches Bollywood.txt
#for those asking the media in question is 83 (2021)
#and it's f*cking hilarious bc my dad is really into cricket
#i have no concern for the sport whatsoever
#so watching this film as the child of Afro-Caribbean West Indian parents with strong evidence of South Asian ancestry
#is a double edged sword bc we're all rooting for the underdogs
#but the Windies are just tearing it up on the f*cking field like nobody's business
#begging Bollywood to understand however that the West Indies is not just Jamaica???
#like i hate to break it to you but there were only two Jamaicans on the Windies World Cup team that year. two
#on the other hand there were four Bajans two Antiguans
#two Trinis playing for T&T as a whole
#why are all the extras in dreadlocks and playing reggae music and waving the Jamaican flag
#every time a Windies player opened their mouth it was this strange mix of Jamaican accent/whatever else they decided to throw in there
#in a supposed attempt to be 'authentic'
#ik about Windrush and the fact that most of the people who came over were Jamaicans but. but. people from literally
#every other country in the Caribbean under British rule immigrated as well???
#between this and the 'ceasefire so we can listen to cricket' i am once again reminded that this is a biopic not a documentary
#Ranveer and Deepika were f*cking good in this tho
#and her fits were insane i am in love with that accordian skirt and skinny turtleneck she wore during the first half of the Cup games
