Its essentially yelp about men, made up entirely of clever hashtags, categorizing his best and worst trades. Manscape. Lulu is spreading like wildfire with a million users over the globe. But some call it man hates, sexist and bad for women. Its completely an application about judging peo e people. And would you want to be judged yourself . Absolutely not. Of course, websites like cheaterville and dont date him girl have let women publicly shamed misbehaving boyfriends for years. But the creator denies it pits women against men. She says its about knowledge, not revenge. Some of the most popular ones are will act silly. Cleans up good. Epic smile. Yet there are plenty of negtive ones, too. Quite a few. Theres a worst of section. Hygienically challenged is one. A lot of people say men are being rated in a way thats demeaning to a guy. That a man is reduced to a snarky hashtag. We live in a world where we get references for an important job or if youre renting or buying an apartment. I really think that why not get references for people were going to end up in relationships with. I think its equalily as important. Smarter decision making. Thats what lulu is all about. If you have this one, if youre a date and they have a hash cheaper than a big mac, the whole thing going through my head is okay, i guess im paying for this date. Get the check and go to the bathroom. Still loves his ex. Youre not going to be able to get that out of your head. Im sara burns. Im 23 years old. I moved to new york city nine months ago. When a guy asked me out, i have been guilty of looking them up and seeing their hashtags and their ratings to make sure theyre okay. We decided to play a little lulu matchmaker by setting up sar sarah, a selfproclaimed super user with my producer friends alex. Im alex. Im 26 years old. Hes got an 8. 3. Above average. Respects women. Skin like butta. First time i heard of lulu, the lulu app. My roommate told me. Oh, you know youre on this app called lulu. The profiles are automatically culled from a womans facebook friends. The girls who reviewed him have hooked up with him. And thats pretty recent. A few weeks later, the date is on. Its the big reveal. Come on out. Oh, its very nice. Very understated. Its not too forward. Perfect. It says hi, im a friendly first date. Sarah has the advantage here. Shes read all about alex on lulu app. But alex is going in blind. My blind date knows everything on lulu. Im a little excited. Do you feel its a little unfair that you have all this Background Information on him and he knows much less about you. I was thinking about that. Im nervous to meet him, but he must be beyond nervous to meet me. Do angry men ever contact you and say this is unfair . We get angry men who say they hate lulu, it shouldnt exist. Theyre going to create one the other way around. And then we have guys saying this is amazing. This is needed. Thank you for building this. Thats why we know were doing something right. Lulu only allows women to review men theyre facebook friends with. And they take measures to ensure that men cant bust into the girls only conversation. Guys have tried to break into lulu in the hundreds of thousands. How do they try to break in . Try to create fake female accounts. They try to change their gender. So how do you bust them . Cant tell you. Oh. While lulu has certainly found a huge female fan base, many men are not amused. Lulu is a bad application because its a hopeless application. Its a reckless application and its a pointless application. Paul brunson is a professional matchmaker and author of its complicated. He says lulu is a dangerous way to start a relationship. I think this turn submission thats important in our lives, perhaps the most important thing well ever do is date in a committed way and get married, it takes something very serious and it makes it a game. Its just not a game. While our lucky back lor alex is waiting in manhattan, we hopped in a car heading across town and gave alexs lulu page a final once over. Wow, hes handsome. Isnt he . My rating was pretty good from what i saw. I saw some comments, one was a mamas boy. Yes, i do love my mom. So i guess thats pretty accurate.

I just moved to new york a year ago. Thats nice. How have you been doing . Do you like it . Yeah. I love it. I think its going well. I think they have chemistry. I hope theres a little bit of chemistry going on. Yeah, shes pretty cool. Does it seem a little unfair that we looked a at your profile and talked about you the entire way over here. Its a little unfair, but at the same time, im really a laid back person so its like everyone is going to form their own opinion about you. But youre not appalled and offended by the site . No. So you already think hes different than his profile . Yeah. In what way . Maybe not the hashtags. Hes more down to earth, funny. One of his hashtags was, like, boring. At least you can ouch.

[ bird screeches ] as award season eats up, 12 years a slave has already scored a golden globe for best motion picture. Now its up for a total of nine academy awards, including best film and best director. If Steve Mcqueen wins, hell make history as the first black director to take home an oscar. And tonight, hes taking us inside the making of his Ground Breaking film. Heres abcs Chris Connell lee with the first of our series oscar confidential. Parker . Action. Is they shot in 108degree heat on centuries old louisiana plantations where such atrocities actually took place. The makers of 12 years a phrase coined a phrase, to capture the eerie alchemy of their work. We really felt we were dancing with ghosts. We were right there in the place where is these things happened. And we felt the place was alive with the sort of energy of that. It was perfumed with a scent of the past. He looked around. There was a plantation. The hearts where the slaves lived. It was in the soil, the blood, the earth. So youre in the presence of a time and a place, but at the same time, a lot of beauty. Just five months since it was first shone to an audience 12 years a slave directed by Steve Mcqueen is already being called a defining film about slavery. A best picture nominee about a subject disgracefully overlooked throughout much of hollywood history. For me, it was a hole in the cannon of history. Serial comic vengeance fantasy django unchained. And now 44yearold mcqueen wanted to tell a story from a new perspective. But now . For me, it was about a free man, a free africanamerican and gets kidnapped into slavery. A lot of people didnt know that there were three black men and women living in the north. The story of an african brought to america had been done in roots very effectively, but this is the story of an actual american thats kidnapped and dragged into slavery. Much of 12 years a slaves narrative and dialogue come from the biography of andrew northup. From the start, mcgeen knew who he wanted to play solomon northup. When they offered you this, you said no. Yeah, i took a moment. I had never seen a film from inside this experience, from insi inside the slave experience. And i felt the responsibility of it and i needed to kind of have, you know, a kind of moment to work out just how to get there. Why did you have to get there . He remis me of harry belafonte. Sid ney portier. He has that dignity in him. And he carries it in an environment which is to be humane. And to me, hes the only one that has that quality. Crushed by intolerable circumstances, he fights for more than freedom. Hes having a battle with his soul. Hes trying to hold it together. Its difficult for someone to hang on to their mind. Their battle climaxes with the slave of the young slave patsy, the role for which mcqueen chose hundreds of actors, played by lupita ns a ngando. There were days i thought would never find someone. I wanted a breeze on the back of your hand. Im asking the world for somebody that doesnt exist. But we found it. Oh, we found it. I aint got no comfort in this life. She held her own. I remember the first day of rehears rehearsal. She came into rehearsal. You could see these guys. Okay, ive got to get my together. Tmcqueen used a long take captured by one camera, to capture the intensity that marks his film from hunger to the sex addiction of shame. Let them do what they want to do. Then we try to trace that. In order to keep that pressure on. Trip. I will not. I put a cut in there. The pressure would have been defused. A 35day fuse meant external pressures, too. Alleviated in part by brad pitt. In one eightminute scene can be gleaned from this comically inappropriate and unauthorized italian poster. Brad was fundamental in making this movie. You know, without him there would not be 12 years a slave. At its new york premier descendants of solomon northrups was there. Im a Third Generation great great, great, great granddaughter. Theyre all different races, you know . Theyre all direct descendants of this man. You know, thats what its all about. There is such a passion and a love in this story. And it is that love that i think allows him to go through it. Its stature already suggests that 12 years a slave may become part of the film cannon it was meant to redress. If this movie winds up getting taught in schools. If generations of schoolchildren watch this, how will that make you feel . Very happy. You know . I just want to be useful. Thats a definite. I just want to be useful. Thats all i want to be. Its one of those things where i just want to go out with two guns blazing. Nothing to lose. Im Chris Connelly for nightline.
