Bush, accidentally combined two movies driven by black castsinto one when she asked Pharrell about the film Hidden Fences."you're nominated for Hidden Fences" pic.twitter.com/7My6dtEkbG Dave Itzkoff (@ditzkoff) January 9, 2017 Bad, yes. But perhaps it was just an honest mistake that she mixed upHidden Figures and Fences, even though it is quite an eyebrow-raising mistake, considering, again, that the two films so prominently feature black actors.But the moment had been largely forgotten by the time actor Michael Keaton took the stage during the award show to present the award for Best Performance by Actress in a Supporting Role, Motion Picture.Thats when it happened. Again. Clear as day, Keaton said, Octavia Spencer, Hidden Fences.Hidden Fences. Again. THEY ARE TROLLING BLACK CINEMA. #GoldenGlobes pic.twitter.com/KsQDtl1pm2 Travon Free (@Travon) January 9, 2017 To Twitter we go for some instant reaction."Hidden Figures" doesn't sound anything like "Fences."
