  I hope Pariah will have a Canadian release too? Will this movie come to Toronto?

  I mean, this is good news and all for the filmmakers/cast and crew, but will black conservative Christians (Tyler Perry's market) go see this film? Let's wait and see...and hope...and wait...and hope

  You're right, perhaps it isn't for their entertainment, but maybe necessary to see? I don't know. Hopefully, films like this will get more people looking less at the color of the director's skin and more towards the story. I do hope though that it would at least open up discussions in the black community about these things we're usually hesitant to talk about. On a side note, how come Antoine Fuqua gets no love here, or anywhere for that matter? He's directed some big budget Hollywood pictures and I NEVER hear any much about him. "What da deal?"

  Maybe the film is not for them. And that's alright. Because Tyler Perry films are not for me. My aunties love his film, though. I don't see my aunties going out with their church groups to see Pariah. I just hope the film make such an impression that the distibutors will market more Black art films/cinema along with Black flicks.
