Do you watch a movie for the movie or for what the actors say outside the movie? Who cares what religion they are. A movie is either good or bad. The rest is meaningless.

I wouldn't support a film made by KKK members...

Why not if it's a well made, entertaining movie?

You honestly need an explanation as to why watching a film made by the KKK, and financially supporting their twisted, outdated politics is wrong?You're not very bright are you?"...and don't point your fooking tenticles at me!"

reply

You honestly let the personal views of a filmmaker effect your outlook on the movie itself? Honestly, if the KKK came together to create a film(highly hypothetical) and it looked like a movie that was going to be good, I would go see it without a second thought. If it was a film endorsing their practices and such then obviously I wouldn't be interested in seeing it, but other than that, why not?

Try not being so repressed. Works wonders.

Yeah. Why would you support someone and make them even richer if they did bad things. I would never support a Roman Polanski film. I don't care if he's a great director, but he raped a little girl. Scientology members are known to shun people who do not believe their beliefs, stalk people who have escaped the cult and ruin their lives (http://gawker.com/5508855/jason-lees-ex+wife-blasts-scientology-travoltas-and-cruises).

As far as the KKK stuff. Would you want to support a group who killed your ancestors?

Even if you don't agree, you should understand people's reasoning's.

I understand to an extent so to each his own I guess. I enjoy art for what it is, not for the artist behind it.

To be fair the KKK in many ways is responsible for the birth of modern film. "Birth Of A Nation" was a movie by the KKK for the KKK and it revolutionized film. That said, I wouldn't watch most of the "art" that group is responsible for, but some things should be seen, no matter how corrupt the message, because the art for its own sake is worth digging into.
