Wife dragged me to see Green Book on the recommendation of some conservative friends. I was most pleasantly surprised, especially at Viggo’s acting, his physical transformation, and acquired accent. The Smithsonian Channel will be doing a show on the history of the Green Book tonight at 8 pm and I look forward to watching it.
The fact that some conservatives actually liked “Green Book” probably explains why Spike Lee had a problem with it.
To me that was the most dramatic transformation since Robert DeNiro put on about 60 pounds and got that huge gut to shoot a few scenes in Raging Bull.
