CinemaBlend Pulls Review Of Turning Red After Social Media Accuses Author Of Sexism And Racism

Article here. Excerpt:

'CinemaBlend has pulled its original review of Turning Red and left its author, Sean O’Connell, out to dry after he was accused of being both a sexist and a racist over his opinion that he was not the “target audience” for Pixar’s period-narrative-centric coming-of-age tale.

Published on March 7th and bluntly subtitled “I am not this film’s target audience,” O’Connell’s review put forth the thesis that the film was a prime example of how, “Pixar has turned its reigns over to fresh voices, and given them the freedom to share deeply personal – though less universal – stories.”

“There’s an audience out there for Turning Red,” he concluded his review. “And when that audience finds the movie, I’ve no doubt they will celebrate it for the unique animal that it is. In my opinion, however, that audience is relatively small, and I’m not part of it.”'
