To tell a family secret, his grandmother was Dutch

They hired a lesbian to play Monica Lewinsky in a movie. What kind of “face” do you call that, I wonder?

Real Jewish Indian chief, Solomon Bibo. Second from left.

[Alas Babylon!]

How about playing Abedin in “How I learned to love Wiener”?

Jews are about two percent of the U.S. population. Is Sarah Silverman really insisting that there should be a two percent ceiling on Jewish actors in Hollywood? Or Jewish producers, directors and crew?

An odd position for a Jewish person to take.

Charlton Heston played a Mexican in Touch of Evil.

Micey Rooney's portrayal of "Breakfast at Tiffany's" Japanese Mr. Yuniosh was the highlight of an otherwise dreary movie.

I saw her in New York many years ago and couldn’t easily figure out who she was. It finally came to me as a man passed me and said, “Yep, that’s who you think it is!” I never understood people doing that to themselves.

Classic Norm MacDonald routine -- which I will try not to butcher too much:

"So, Marlon Brando's in trouble He said that the Jews run Hollywood. Turns out the Jewish League didn't like that. That old rumor, going 'round. So, the Jewish League announced that Brando would never work in that town again.

But now they've had a change of heart. You see, Brando apologized. He says that he was wrong to say that the Jews run Hollywood. And the Jews have accepted his apology and announced that he will now be allowed to work again."

They just don’t have enough Jews working in Hollywood I guess . Haha

[jacknhoo]

Look at all of the Jewish persons cast as native Americans in Hollywood films, we watch a lot of westerns.

When I read the title, I thought that kind of problem is what it was referring to.

Sarah Silverman is a vile person, just mentioning that truthful side note.

So hot:

So mean and stupid.

[roadcat]

Isn’t that what all acting is? Playing something you’re not.

Eddie Murphy did a great job portraying old Jewish guys. Hard to tell the difference from the real thing.

“Charlton Heston played a Mexican in Touch of Evil”

Jewish Eli Wallach was the best Mexican ever as Tuco.

[Altura Ct.]

Lord have mercy.

Sarah Silverman has a love of golden showers problem.

[Lurkinanloomin]

All the Nazis in Hogan’s Heroes were Jews.

[doorgunner69]

Reminds me of a Frank Zappa song about wanting a

“Hairy little Jewish princess”.

[monkeyshine]

That was a good role indeed.

[The Antiyuppie]

But Mickey Rooney positively stank as Mr. Yunioshi in Breakfast at Tiffany’s.
