If she’s going to say that this director somehow was bigoted, what does that make her, since she willingly participated in these allegedly objectionable movies???

I heard a radio ad for the, ‘Chappaquiddick’ movie yesterday. It actually WARNED PEOPLE that there would be some SMOKING in the movie!
Aarrgghhh!!!

I do that when I watch an old movie. Then I think about how simple and pleasant life was then because every word and action wasn’t a landmine. I grew up in the south around whites and blacks, girls and gays. Everyone was happier and mixed freely, without worrying about the inadvertent “offense” that would end a career or get you kicked out of school.
Blazing Saddles would make their heads explode today. It would cause Civil War II.
I toss on Blazing Saddles about once a year just to remind myself of this.
Try to imagine Blazing Saddles being made today.

Like “historical smoking” warnings for the ad for “Chappaquiddick”.
