   Hello Rob!   
      
   ** On Monday 01.09.25 - 09:24, you wrote..   
      
      
    RM> Funny thing.. I watched a movie the other night, not too old   
    RM> (2022) and there was something about it that had me so amazed   
    RM> that I was telling others about it..   
      
   I asked chatgpt for all white after 2020.. and it only found     
   one:   
      
   Recently Released Films Likely Featuring All (or Almost All)     
   White Casts   
      
   White Bird (2024)   
   Cast: Ariella Glaser, Orlando Schwerdt, Bryce Gheisar, Gillian Anderson, Helen   
   Mirren-all of whom are white actors.   
   Wikipedia   
      
   As a wartime drama set in WWII Europe, it appears to feature no actors of   
   color.   
      
   Then.. I asked it to go back to year 2000..   
      
   Here are five films (2000-present) whose **credited speaking     
   casts appear to be entirely white**. Notes are based on     
   official cast lists; uncredited extras aren't considered.   
      
   1. **All Is Lost** (2013) - a one-man survival drama starring Robert Redford.   
   ([Wikipedia][1])   
   2. **The Others** (2001) - supernatural thriller with Nicole Kidman, Fionnula   
   Flanagan, Christopher Eccleston, and others. ([Wikipedia][2])   
   3. **Hush** (2016) - home-invasion thriller led by Kate Siegel; principal cast   
   includes John Gallagher Jr., Michael Trucco, Samantha Sloyan. ([Wikipedia][3])   
   4. **The Lighthouse** (2019) - two-hander with Robert Pattinson and Willem   
   Dafoe (plus a few minor white roles). ([Wikipedia][4], [IMDb][5])   
   5. **The Banshees of Inisherin** (2022) - Irish drama featuring Colin Farrell,   
   Brendan Gleeson, Kerry Condon, Barry Keoghan, etc. ([Wikipedia][6], [IMDb][7])   
      
   If you want more examples (e.g., horror only, indie only, or different   
   decades), say the word and I'll tailor the list.
