NOTLD was groundbreaking, in that its main character (as Romero claims) was cast in spite of rather than because of his race. From a casting perspective alone, that's noteworthy ...I find that far more interesting than the topic of what the film later evolved into.......
A very interesting angle, I suppose, is a discussion of how "there" the commentary is in the first place, since opinions are so widely varied. Hey, it's a thought-provoking movie.
