Embattled filmmaker Nate Parker's slave-rebellion drama had hoped to cross $10 million in its debut; 'Girl on the Train,' starring Emily Blunt, easily places No. 1. Two years after Gone Girl gripped audiences, Tate Taylor's female-fueled The Girl on the Train opened to a solid $24.7 million from 3,133 theaters at the North American box office, easily winning the race ahead of Nate Parker's The Birth of a Nation.

You mean ANOTHER movie about slavery just in time for the election?
Note how both movies called Birth of a Nation have been made as Democrat Party propaganda.
They could make never another poor oppressed minorities of any stripe race creed or religion movie ever again and it wouldn’t be long enough for me to be spared the steady onslaught of the past 50 years whereby some aspect of my being is always blamed for what afflicts the poor oppressed
The people who civilized the world are being destroyed by those we civilized by self hating agents
I get first dibs on these English actresses as I see them in period dramas before they become big stars, for example, Felicity Jones, Haley Atwell, and Carey Mulligan.
....directed,produced,written and stars. A man who beat a rape charge. Victim later committed suicide
The lesson here is that if you are going to be a rapist, your last name better be Clinton.

Interesting
Birth of a Nation was the first movie screened at the White house by Woodrow Wilson (D)
The original was a KKK propaganda film
Yep.
Both films were Democrat Party propaganda films.
Funny, huh.
Wilson gushed about the film thus, “Like writing history with lightning!’’.
Why go to the theater and pay big bucks to see blacks rioting, when you can just turn on your TV news, and watch them do it for free.
LOL! No sh#t!
I saw the trailer for “Birth of a Nation” - it seemed extremely racist and very much anti-white.
Liberals are really excited about this film.
They are ignoring the rape accusation against the writer/director.
The thing about Nat Turner, as far as I understand, is that his activity wasn’t really a slave revolt but more like a psychopathic killing spree.
Maybe a movie about Harpers Ferry might do well.
If I want to hear about what a piece of garbage I am because I’m white, I’ll turn on the news.
Don’t need to pay 20 bucks to hear that when I can get it for free.
Why do I need to see this film? I’m not black.
