This pisses me off! Why the heck should the race matter in this case? This was a starring role in a film - it wasn't portraying every single black woman in the history of time as a prostitute - just as "Pretty Woman" did NOT represent every single white woman.......... this statement by Angela Bassett is way off base to me........

Like I said to W back in class, I think it's more sour grapes than anything, but it's certainly irksome she took that tack.

Why gets me is Halle's character wasn't even close to being a prostitute unless Anglea Bassett thinks every unmarried woman having sex is a hooker.
