NAPPY, WHAT?????
Social media is ABLAZE over Lee Daniels‘ hilariously unhinged Horror Drama The Deliverance which features a brilliantly bonkers performance from Glenn Close who steals every scene (especially that ONE scene) as a wig-wearing, Black man-loving, cigarette-smoking, du-rag-wearing mother in the midst of familial chaos.
I never thought in all my days that I would see THEE Glenn Close doing a sew in with French manicure tips, chewing gum like a cow, with a cajun accent and doing the “girl straighten yo head up” move 😂🤣 pic.twitter.com/EcD05fPLUz

The 8-time Oscar nominee was fully committed to the unexpected role that she admitted was quite the journey to portray.

“For me it was a real journey finding Alberta and I was so led into that journey and through that journey by Lee [Daniels] who had such a strong idea in his head,” Close recalled in an interview with BOSSIP.
“He kept saying to me, ‘Every Black person knows somebody like Alberta, not every white person does but every Black person does,’ and so I said, ‘OK I’m gonna totally trust you and you lead me into her.’ I found her when I found that incredible freedom of feeling that whatever I put in my body is only to make me sexy, and I feel sexy all the time, that was kind of a new thought for me.”
As expected, the provocative possession film skyrocketed to #1 on Netflix’s trending movie chart while stirring up all sorts of hilarious shenanigans across the internet.

By now, you’ve probably seen THAT scene where a demonic Alberta says the life-changing line that probably made Tyler Perry clutch his Madea pearls.
Lee Daniel’s you will pay for your Crimes for having Glenn Close say this 😂😂😂 #TheDeliverance pic.twitter.com/VHdNzLBJRO

While giving Close her flowers, Daniels caught hell for essentially repeating his direction to the beloved actress while filming the movie.
Every Black person knows an Alberta. She’s part of the fabric of our community, but we’ve never seen her on screen before. Thank you Glenn for bringing her magnificently to life.

In the blink of an eye, Black Twitter went from laughing with the Oscar-nominated director to mocking him with a flurry of sarcastic memes.
This nigga added a white woman to a true story that did not involve a white woman then said it’s because white women like her are part of the FABRIC OF THE BLACK COMMUNITY.

Whether you agree with him or not, it’s clear the electric character resonated with audiences who buzzed about the film the entire Labor Day weekend.
Number one film on @Netflix!!! Wow, thank y’all for loving #TheDeliverance so much. We put our everything into this one ✊🏾✨ pic.twitter.com/ENMwHxmvi0

Loosely based on a true story, The Deliverance stars Andra Day as Ebony Jackson–a struggling single mother fighting personal demons before fighting actual demons when she moves her family into a new home (their third in a year) for a fresh start.
Weighed down by a strained relationship with her mother and Child Protective Services threatening to tear the family apart, Ebony soon finds herself locked in a battle for her life and the souls of her children.
Check out the trailer below:
