I love it when people I respect says something intelligent.

They already gave the complaint more time than it’s worth. This is one of those cutesy damned-if-you-do, damned-if-you-don’t games the race pimps love to play. If they wrote a film poking the sort of fun at black people that they did to North Dakotans in Fargo there’d be rioting by BLM and shrieking that it wasn’t “authentic”. Just ignore the whiners - you can never please them and it’s a mistake to try.

why are people so sensitive?

I’m Italian American and I love The Godfather I and II and Goodfellas. And a Bronx Tale and The Sopranos.

If someone out there is STUPID enough to think that they make up more than a very small percent of a percent of Italian Americans, why should I care?

Besides, we all know there’s no such thing as the La Cosa Nostra :)

Why do Blacks expect Whites to write about their experience? That’s what Spike Lee does. If you want better Black writers, have more Black students finish high school and college. That’s the job of Black fathers and mothers.

After spending $18 TRILLION of their tax dollars on worthless social spending for 50 years, Whites have given up trying to improve Black lives.

Norman Jewison, a fairly accomplished director, was originally slated to direct Malcolm X. Spike Lee raised a stink and said the movie "had to be directed by a black man", so Jewison was replaced by Lee.

Spike Lee and the rest of the OscarsSoWhite crowd should STFU and make their own movies and see if anybody buys tickets to them.

“True Grit” was a great book, and the Coen Brothers served up a fantastic treatment of it. Just saying.

The courage to tell the truth..

There's a Roman Catholic priest, a Protestant minister, a Greek Orthodox priest -- and a rabbi.

Do they walk into a bar?

Raising Arizona and Intolerable Cruelty are two very underrated Coen Brothers films. I like just about every one of their movies. Who would think that the people who made Fargo could ever make No Country For Old Men? Such diversity! True Grit is one of the few re-makes where I can say it is as good or perhaps better than the original. After saying all of that and then finding out they can be intelligent when speaking about a controversial subject, it makes me like them that much more...

and Minnesotan Jews ("A Serious Man")

This movie is an underrated gem, a sort-of retelling of the Book of Job. It has one of the best shaggy dog stories and a great performance by an actor named Michael Stuhlbarg, who also played Arnold Rothstein in Boardwalk Empire.

I love Fargo, Burn After Reading, Big Lebowski, No Country for Old Men, Oh Brother Where Art Thou, and Miller's Crossing as well, and this statement makes me like the Coens even more.

Yeah, why is rap usually only about black people living in rough neighborhoods? How come black rap artists never rap about Asians in Chinatown or Little Tokyo? Why don’t they rap about the problems of white doctors under Obamacare not getting reimbursed for all their work?

It is not the “fault” of the actors or writers or directors.

Maybe the movies just sucked.

I really liked Hail Caesar. I thought it was great.
