so "get out" was the big surprise, earning some four academy award nominations including best picture. >> and it was a sleeper at the box office but it earned a

critical acclaim and now it writer and director, jordan peele finds himself ready to make oscar history. >> "get out" is the little horror movie that could, sweeping up four academy award nominations. best original screen play, director, actor and best pickker. low budget horror flicks just aren't suppose dood that. but it's more than it might seem. it's a timely profound picture about race and the oscars aren't quite so white anymore. writer/director, jordan peele writing right nowium rr just thinking about everyone who bought a ticket and told everyone they should. >> something lurking on the surface and we weren't talk bouth. >> reporter: here's the basic premise. >> do they know i'm black? >> rose, a rich white girl

taking black boyfriend, chris home for the first time. >> there wasn't a time in the past where i met a white girlfriend's parents and i was nervous. where there's fear, there's a horror movie. that's the state you want a protagnist of a horror movie to be in. >> so is it true? is it better? >> wow. >> is your deepest fear the ax-murderer or the casual rey racist? >> a little bit of both. >> you ever play golf? >> a few years ago. i wasn't very good. >> i do know tiger. >> oh, that's great. >> i know tiger woods. >> has that kind of stuff happen to you? >> that's every day being black in this country and i think they're trying to say something good. but inherent in that is a disregard for the humanity of the person. you are automatically seeing color first. it doesn't enrage me but what it

represents does. >> reporter: i did think have i ever done anything like that? >> as you should and you have and i have. my view on race is not that white people are bad. everyone is genetically predisposed to categorize. it way we're meant to deal with that is to be woke, to be able to acknowledge that in ourselves, no matter who you are or where you're from, when you step in that theater you're seeing that world through chris's eyes. >> are you jordan peele horror movie director? >> yes, say it again. i love it. yes, i'm complicated. >> simply jordan peele oscar winning director. >> are you finally going to go see it? >> i cannot believe i still have not seen "get out" yet.
