  • M. Night Shyamalan shares that feeling like an outsider growing up helped his filmmaking, discusses feeling the natural pushback against trying to make his voice heard and encourages young filmmakers to change the game and make the table longer for others.

    Lilly!! How do you find so many amazingly kind people??! Night is so wholesome and supportive of his daughters! ♥️ And hearing you talk about your folks speaking in Punjabi 😄 My excellent boss is from India and watching this show does give me even more appreciation for her!

      That is not correct. He was born in Pondicherry, His father is Malayali but his Mother is an ethnic Tamil and his mom's family is the one he always alludes too a being all doctors or in the medical field lol. When he visits the South as a kid he was visiting Tamil Nadu not Kerala.

    The way he made Avatar the Airbender I'd ask him the same thing his parents asked too 😂
    It's hard to make but why.. why this movie 🥲 it remained a black mark. Night Shyamalan if you're watching this redeem yourself by making a good Avatar the Airbender movie.
    Edit: we need another Interview him being candid, open about what went wrong with Avatar the Last Airbender movie according to him.

      @annushankar3032 Před 3 lety +4

      It’s just the time before the internet when you’re a minority culture that has negative stereotypes placed on it. It’s something that changes as you grow up, but “being ashamed” is normal as a kid.

      @shubhanshjain Před 3 lety

      @@annushankar3032 I agree with the scenario you are mentioning, you want to be associated with the majority, avoid the spotlight. The difficulty is that it's the family that instills confidence for your heritage in you but you as a kid run away from them only in the first place whenever topics like that are discussed by parents and call them names as well sometimes.

    Fact of matter is, it's only competence that matters in any field not your race,gender,sexuality etc etc.
    Interesting to see how ppl are finding new new identities and victimhoods to further divide and discriminate humanity.
