Jordan Peele's American Comedy-Horror Marvel 'Get Out' to be Released in February
An amalgamation of horror and comedy, "Get Out" is an unspoken platform of allaying racism and stereotypes associated with the black race. The loved-up duo showcased in the movie depicts an example of pure love and disregard the racial segregation. The film follows the life of a young interracial couple who visit the mysterious estate of the girl's parents and are forced to face the racial stigmas.
When Chris Washington along with his girlfriend Rose Armitage decides to pay a visit to her parents' house in the suburbs, the first time rendezvous is not pleasant. The classy yet elegant suburban location is dominated by the Whites and as expected, however, the track changes when their groundskeeper Walter and Housekeeper Georgina are black, reports TIME.
Chris is Rose's first African American boyfriend, reports PEOPLE. Rose has not told her parents' before and Dr. Armitage, a well-established neurosurgeon seems to hide the discomforts they might be experiencing. The self-proclaimed progressive parents' hints that he would have voted for Barack Obama a third time if he easily could.
Chris is later introduced to the black housekeepers and find them insanely polite. The storyline unfolds as Chris has awkward and bizarre encounters with Rose's parents along with their helpers. The only support for Chris comes down from LilRel, one of the protagonist's black friends in the city. He is typically the only person who is aware of Chris' situation and encourages him frequently to get out of the place and the circle immediately.
"Get Out" is Jordan Peele's exceptional marvel. Making a directorial debut, Jordan's unmatchable skills and his knack for merging satirical parody with a silent message is applause-worthy. The movie marks a traditional genre shift from comedy.
The film stars Daniel Kaluuya, Catherine Keener, Allison Williams, Bradley Whitford and Stephen Root. The movie is slated to hit the big screens Friday, Feb. 24.
