Why not cast "Guess Who's Coming To Dinner" with a hispanic man dating a black woman?

There is tension and racism between people were aren't white too.

Ving Rhames took the title role in the new "Kojak"

I think Telly would approve of this casting - Rhames is really good.

Tempers exploded in to rage today as Lucusfilms proposed remake of "The Day The earth Stood Still" was put on indefinite hold after the directors inability to find a actor to play the new Gort. I had wanted an Asian in that role from the beginning but Gort is 9 feet tall so...The director explained Wednesday.
